3 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These interim financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake In the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company also recorded its revenues in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104 which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognized revenue when the product was shipped from the supplier .
Loss Per Share
The Company has presented the basic loss per share computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.
Advertising
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are shown net of any allowances for doubtful accounts. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the age of the receivable, discussions that may have occurred with the customer and management’s judgement as to the overall collectibility of the receivable from that customer. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts in the period of the recovery.
Depreciation
Property and equipment are depreciated over their useful lives according to the following methods and annual rates:
| | Method | | Rate | |
Computer hardware | | | Declining balance | | | 30 | % |
Furniture and fixtures | | | Declining balance | | | 20 | % |
Leasehold improvements | | | Straight line | | | Shorter of useful life or remaining lease term | |

Income taxes
The Company uses the liability method in providing income taxes on all transactions that have been recognized in the financial statements. This method requires the adjustment of deferred taxes to reflect the tax rates at which future amounts will be settled or realized. The effects of tax rate changes on future deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax benefits, as well as other changes in income tax laws are recognized in net earnings in the period in which such changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
Comprehensive income (loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (“OCI”). OCI refers to changes in net assets from transactions and other events and circumstances other than transactions with shareholders. These changes are recorded directly as a separate component of shareholders’ equity (deficiency) and excluded from net income (loss). The only other comprehensive income (loss) item for the Company relates to foreign currency translation arising from the translation of the financial statements from the functional currency into the reporting currency.
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency is the Canadian dollar.
The translation of the Company’s financial statements from the functional currency to its reporting currency is performed as follows:
All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues, expenses and cash flow amounts are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are included in comprehensive income (loss) as a component of the stockholders’ deficit.
Stock-based compensation
On September 6, 2006, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of a Stock Option Plan (hereafter referred to as the “Plan”) whereby 2,685,388 shares of common stock may be granted under this Plan. The Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors, who will determine the terms of the option agreements, the key employees and Directors to whom options are to be granted, the number of shares subject to each option the option price thereof. The per share option price of options granted under the Plan will not be less than the fair market value of the shares on the date the options are granted. The Plan also provides for the issuance of stock appreciation rights at the discretion of the Board of Directors and provides for the issuance of restricted stock awards at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Options will be granted for a term not greater than ten years from the date of grant.
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123 (R) “Share-Based Payments” in accounting for the Plan. SFAS No. 123 (R) requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair market value at the date of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair market value of stock options is determined using the Black Scholes valuation model. The expected dividend yield is based on historical dividend payouts, the expected volatility is based upon historical volatilities of the Company’s stock for a period approximating the expected life; the risk-free rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option; and the expected life represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding. To date, no options have been granted under the Plan.

8- LOSS PER SHARE
For the purpose of the loss per share calculation, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding has been used. Had the treasury stock method been applied to the unexercised share warrants, the effect on the loss per share would be anti-dilutive.
714,285 warrants were issued on October 30, 2006 at $0.75 per warrant and expire October 2008.
The total warrants at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were 714,285 and 714,285, respectively.
10- FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the short-term financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying amount given that they will mature shortly.
11 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
FASB Interpretation 48
In June 2006, FASB Interpretation 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” was issued which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de−recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and earlier application of the provisions of this Interpretation is encouraged if the enterprise has not yet issued financial statements, including interim financial statements, in the period this Interpretation is adopted. The Company’s adoption of FIN 48 has not had an impact on its consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 157
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, ‘Fair Value Measurements’, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value measurements and expands disclosures about such measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather it creates a consistent method for calculating fair value measurements to address non-comparability of financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact SFAS 157 will have on the consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 159
On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, ’The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities : Including an amendment of FASB N0. 115’ to reduce earnings volatility caused by related assets and liablities measured differently under GAAP. SFAS No. 159 allows all entities to make an irrevocable instrument-by-instrument election to measure eligible items at fair value in their entirety. In addition, unrealized gains and losses will be reported in earnings at each reporting date. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements that focus on providing information about the impact of electing the fair value option. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, concurrent with the adoption of SFAS No. 157. The Company does not anticipate that its adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No 160
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS No. 160”), which amends Accounting Research Bulletin 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It also clarifies that anoncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 also changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented by requiring consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated statement of income, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated and requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent owners and the interests of the noncontrolling owners of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal periods, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
SFAS No. 141(R)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141(R)). This Statement replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, including those arising from contractual contingencies, any contingent consideration, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the statement. SFAS No. 141(R) also requires the acquirer in a business combination achieved in stages (sometimes referred to as a step acquisition) to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values (or other amounts determined in accordance with SFAS No. 141(R)). In addition, SFAS No. 141(R)'s requirement to measure the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at fair value will result in recognizing the goodwill attributable to the noncontrolling interest in addition to that attributable to the acquirer.
SFAS No. 141(R) amends SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to require the acquirer to recognize changes in the amount of its deferred tax benefits that are recognizable because of a business combination either in income from continuing operations in the period of the combination or directly in contributed capital, depending on the circumstances. It also amends SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to, among other things, provide guidance on the impairment testing of acquired research and development intangible assets and assets that the acquirer intends not to use. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) could have on its consolidated financial statements.

On December 21, 2007 the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB No. 110”), which, effective January 1, 2008, amends and replaces SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment. SAB No.110 expresses the views of the SEC staff regarding the use of a "simplified" method in developing an estimate of expected term of "plain vanilla" share options in accordance with FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. Under the "simplified" method, the expected term is calculated as the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the option. The use of the "simplified" method, which was first described in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2007. SAB No. 110 extends the use of the "simplified” method for "plain vanilla" awards in certain situations. The SEC staff does not expect the "simplified" method to be used when sufficient information regarding exercise behavior, such as historical exercise data or exercise information from external sources, becomes available. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of SAB No. 110 could have on its consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited)
Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, (SFAS 161). This statement requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 161 on January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of SFAS No. 161 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets,”, which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of intangible assets under FASB 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142 and the period of the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under FASB 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” and other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of FSP FAS 142-3 on its consolidated financial statements.

Company’s overview
The Company will launch an expanded product line and in Ultra High Temperature (UHT) form when planned financing as discussed under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” is completed. Consequently, there are no revenues in the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2007.
Dairy Fresh Farms is an all natural process resulting in a healthier milk based product which is low in cholesterol, trans fat free, lactose free, low in saturated fat, 99% fat free and has high levels of omega 6 and 3 and monounsaturated fat enhanced without compromising great taste.
The Company management realized that the opportunities in its current business is one that is evolving. A move to promote the brands as a licensing opportunity has been decided by management as the best course of action for the near term. The business model which originally included just the dairy side has also expanded into a new area. That being said interest for funding the original dairy business with a new focus on licensing is still high. The company is continuing to keep its trademarks and business associations current. These include the Ontario Dairy Council, Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation “Health Check TM” and the its “Dairy Fresh Farms TM” plus “New Generation TM” and “Drink to your hearts content TM”.
The Company realizes that it has to look at different opportunities in order to expand on it’s current business plan and to provide for the long term success of the Company. After a considerable and lengthy overview of opportunities, management determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to enter into an agreement to merge an operating entity into the Company.
On October 23, 2007, we entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Great Bear Explorations Inc., an Alberta, Canada corporation (“GBE”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, GBE merged with and into our company (the “Merger”).
Also as a result of the Merger all of the outstanding shares of GBE common stock were converted into the right to receive, on a pro rata basis, thirty million (30,000,000) shares of our common stock as set forth in the Merger Agreement.
Great Bear Explorations Inc. is a development stage Canadian company engaged in the oil and gas exploration industry. This corporation has acquired a 35% interest in Peace East Energy Corp, whose assets consists of primarily joint venture and farm out agreements in North Central Alberta Canada. These agreements provide for Peace East to participate in oil and gas activities on certain property (approximately 8,200 ha.) and to post and bid on other properties that have been extensively analyzed by the Peace East over the last 18 months. In addition Peace East has given Great Bear Exploration first right of refusal for the remaining 65%. The geographical areas of interests of these agreements are situated in the north central area of Alberta, Canada
Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires application of management’s subjective judgments, often requiring the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in the subsequent periods. Our actual results may differ substantially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006, we believe that the following accounting policies require the application of significant judgments and estimates.
Plan of operation
The plan of operation for the Company was developed over a three-year period. Management started by studying the Australian experience as it related to the Canadian market place. Significant sales numbers had been delivered out of Sydney, Australia but with both market changes and potential differing Canadian tastes management decided to take another approach to tackling the Canadian market. Camelford Graham Research Group undertook an independent market research study. This study was conducted in Vancouver, British Columbia and Montreal, Quebec. The results from the study were published in December 2003 with resulting findings focusing our operations on several very important areas.
First, the size of the opportunity was much larger than originally anticipated due to the intent to purchase numbers that resulted from this study. This meant that management had to revise the packing sizes for the Dairy Fresh Farms upwards to accommodate the anticipated demand.
Second, the study directed management to launch in Western Canada as a first step into the rest of the country. It was perceived that the logistics and more importantly the market reception would be very favorable with a product launch in the West. This decision was also reinforced with the effort and support that Canada Safeway stores and their manufacturing division Lucerne Foods gave our group with initial manufacturing test runs and distribution expertise.
Finally, it was felt that perfecting the launch strategy in Western Canada would give Dairy Fresh Farms a strong base of operations prior to moving into the much larger and diverse markets of both Ontario and Quebec.
The most significant conclusion from our test launch with Canada Safeway/Lucerne was the need to produce the product in Ultra High Temperature (UHT) format, which will provide extended shelf life to approximately 45 days. This is necessary to build brand awareness with the customers during the early stages of growth and allow sufficient distribution time, as the product is rolled out to other retailers. Otherwise the company would need to spend excessive amounts on marketing and in store demos in order to move the product on a timely basis.
We finished our test launch in December 2005. We are currently actively seeking new financing. When the financing is completed, we will resume our production and distribution plan for Western Canada and the rest of Canada.
Assuming our funding is raised, we intend to focus our efforts over the next 12 months primarily on our business opportunities in Western Canada. If we are not able to raise additional funds on a timely basis, any progress with respect to our product and product lines will be limited and our potential revenues will be adversely affected.
In additions, management will be devoting time to expanding the operations of our newly acquired business, Great Bear Explorations
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fluctuations in operating results
Our results of operations have fluctuated significantly from period to period and are likely to continue to do so in the future. We anticipate that our annual results of operations will be impacted for the foreseeable future by several factors including the progress and timing of expenditures related to product launches. Due to these fluctuations, we believe that the period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not a good indication of our future performance.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company did not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements during the quarter.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2008, we have an accumulated deficit of $6,343,609 and we expect to incur additional losses in the short term at least until such time, if ever, that our products are manufactured and marketed profitably. We have financed our operations since inception primarily through the private placements of equity and debt securities.
At March 31, 2008, we have $14,786 in cash.
Assuming our funding is raised, we intend to focus our efforts over the next twelve months on creating and entering into marketing and sales agreements in the Canadian marketplace. In such event, if we are unable to raise additional funds on a timely basis or at all, any progress with respect to our products and, therefore, our potential revenues, would be adversely affected.
In the event that our plans change, our assumptions change or prove inaccurate, or if our existing cash resources, together with other funding resources including anticipated sales of our products, otherwise prove to be insufficient to fund our operations, we could be required to seek additional financing. We have no current arrangements with respect to sources of additional financing.
The auditors’ report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007 states that the net loss incurred during the year ended December 31, 2007, the accumulated deficit as of that date, and the other factors described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, as well as the accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2008, and the other factors described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
On October 23, 2007, we entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Great Bear Explorations Inc., an Alberta, Canada corporation (“GBE”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, GBE merged with and into our company (the “Merger”).
Also as a result of the Merger all of the outstanding shares of GBE common stock were converted into the right to receive, on a pro rata basis, thirty million (30,000,000) shares of our common stock as set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Great Bear Explorations Inc. is a development stage Canadian company engaged in the oil and gas exploration industry. This corporation has acquired a 35% interest in Peace East Energy Corp, whose assets consists of primarily joint venture and farm out agreements in North Central Alberta Canada. These agreements provide for Peace East to participate in oil and gas activities on certain property (approximately 8,200 ha.) and to post and bid on other properties that have been extensively analyzed by the Peace East over the last 18 months.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our President, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our President concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company’s operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2008. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of the President, concluded that, as of March 31, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries' officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
We have updated the risk factors previously disclosed in Annual Report on Form 10–KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2008 (the “Fiscal 2007 10–KSB”). We believe there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Fiscal 2007 10–KSB except as disclosed below.
Our Common Stock Is Subject To Penny Stock Regulation
Our shares are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on the NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the registrant's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. Since our shares are deemed to be "penny stock", trading in the shares will be subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.
The Liquidity Of Our Common Stock Is Seriously Limited And There Is A Limited Market For Our Common Stock
Our stock is currently being traded on the NASDAQ Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, and the liquidity of our common stock is limited. The Bulletin Board is a limited market and subject to substantial restrictions and limitations in comparison to the NASDAQ system. Any broker/dealer that makes a market in our stock or other person that buys or sells our stock could have a significant influence over its price at any given time.
