Hard to say if they made or lost money on the shares, most sources say that money was lost but they lump the federal and Ontario sales together, Ontario sold at a different price. Also we don't know if the government converted the money from USD right away, at the time of the federal sale our dollar was at about $1.25
Well I go with what I read about in mainstream media. You said it was false and now sound like you really don't know exactly.

Who should we believe?
