CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, concerning plans of CanAm Uranium Corp., a Nevada corporation (“CanAm Uranium” or the “Company”), regarding its properties, operations and other matters. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Statements concerning reserves, if any, and mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed, and in the case of mineral reserves, such statements reflect the conclusion based on certain assumptions that the mineral deposit can be economically exploited. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “plans”, “estimates” or “intends”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:
· | risks related to uranium prices and other commodity price fluctuations; |
· | risks related to uranium prices, gold prices and other commodity price fluctuations; |
· | risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits; |
· | risks related to the inherent uncertainty of production and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses; |
· | results of initial feasibility, prefeasibility and feasibility studies, and the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with the expectations of the Company; |
· | mining and development risks, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in production; |
· | the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of feasibility studies; |
· | the uncertainty of profitability based upon the CanAm Uranium’s history of losses; |
· | risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms; |
· | risks related to environmental regulation and liability; |
· | risks related to hedging activities; |
· | political and regulatory risks associated with mining and exploration; and |
· | other risks and uncertainties related to the CanAm Uranium’s prospects, properties and business strategy. |
Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements are made based on management’s beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date the statements are made and the CanAm undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements.

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Canam Uranium Corp. (the “Company”) is an exploration stage company that was organized to engage in the business of natural resource exploration in the United States and Canada.
Going concern
These financial statements have been prepared with the on-going assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, certain conditions noted below currently exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the sale of common stock. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on the Company’s ability to complete additional equity financings or generate profitable operations in the future. Management’s plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Exploration stage company
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and according to the provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “ Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises”, as it devotes substantially all of its efforts to acquiring and exploring mineral properties. It is industry practice that mining companies in the development stage are classified under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as exploration stage companies. Until such properties are acquired and developed, the Company will continue to prepare its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the exploration or development stage.
Natural resource properties
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on June 7, 2004, and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. The Company expenses all costs related to the maintenance and exploration of mineral claims in which it has secured exploration rights prior to establishment of proven and probable reserves. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects; therefore, all exploration costs are being expensed. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets.” The Company assesses the carrying cost for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated lie of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
Reclamation costs
The Company's policy for recording reclamation costs is to record a liability for the estimated costs to reclaim mined land by recording charges to production costs for each tonne of ore mined over the life of the mine. The amount charged is based on management's estimation of reclamation costs to be incurred. The accrued liability for reclamation expenditures is reduced as reclamation expenditures are made. Certain reclamation work is performed concurrently with mining and these expenditures are charged to operations at that time. As at April 30, 2008 the Company has determined that it has no significant asset retirement or reclamation obligations.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. We base our estimates on a number of factors, including historical experience, current events and actions the company may undertake in the future, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We use estimates when accounting for certain items such as asset impairments and stock based compensation,

Financial instruments
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, “ Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” . The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The fair market value of the Company’s financial instruments comprising cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which at times, exceed federally insured amounts. The Company has not experienced any material losses in such accounts
Loss per common share
Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. Because the Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities, the accompanying presentation is only of basic loss per share.
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in Canadian dollars are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” as follows:
a) monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date; and
b) revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.
For foreign currency transactions, the Company translates these amounts to the Company's functional currency at the exchange rate effective on the invoice date. If the exchange rate changes between the time of purchase and the time actual payment is made, a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss results which is included in determining net loss for the period.
Income taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. As at April30,2008 the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards; however, due to the uncertainty of realization, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets resulting from these loss carry-forwards.
Stock-based Compensation
SFAS No. 123(R), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), as amended by SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - transition and disclosure", was adopted by the company on January 1, 2006, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and shares issued through its employee stock purchase plan, based on estimated fair values. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25. Under APB 25, compensation cost is measured based on the excess, if any, of the quoted market price or fair value of a company's stock at the grant date (or a later date where the option has variable terms that depend on events after the date of grant) over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense is recognized immediately for past services and pro-rata for

future services over the option-vesting period. SFAS 123(R) require that compensation cost resulting from the granting of stock options be measured and reported currently in the income statement and allocated over the remaining life of the option. The adoption of this standard had no impact to the Company’s financial position prior to January 1, 2006.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force in Issue No. 96-18. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.
Comprehensive Income
SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. As at April 30, 2008 the Company had no items of other comprehensive income.

NOTE 3 - NATURAL RESOURCE PROPERTIES and RELATED EXPLORATION DEVELOPMENT - continued
The Board of Directors of the Company, after lengthy analysis prior to and during a board meeting of October 2, 2006 elected to refocus the Company's exploration activity into the area of uranium exploration, as they felt that there were better prospects for shareholder returns. Consequently, they chose not to renew these claims and allowed them to lapse.
BANCROFT claims
On October 20, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with El Nino Ventures Inc. to acquire a 60% option on the Bancroft properties in the Province of Ontario, Canada totaling 3,800 hectares over numerous individual claims.
The option required payment of CDN$40,000 on closing and CDN$25,000 within 10 days of closing 2006, payment of CDN $60,000 of exploration costs by November 15, 2006, and the issuance of 275,000 post split shares of its stock, restricted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. In order to maintain the option the Company is required to make a payment of CDN$20,000 on the first anniversary of the agreement, and pay CDN $500,000 of exploration costs in each year of the first and second anniversaries of the agreement. In order to earn an 80% option, the Company is required to issue a further 300,000 restricted post split shares and complete a further CDN$1,500,000 in exploration expenditures in the third and fourth year after the execution of the agreement.

Subsequent to the year end the company paid CDN $25,000 pursuant to the amended option agreement, but had not paid CDN $165,000 by January 31, 2008. The company is re-negotiating the terms of the amended option agreement with El Nino.
On April 1st 2008, the Board of Directors chose not to continue the option of the Bancroft Properties due to the poor drilling results and inability to renegotiate terms of the option.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options granted. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For purposes of the calculation, the following assumptions were used:
| | 2008 | |
Risk free interest rate | | | 4.70 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | | 0 | % |
Expected stock price volatility | | | 100 | % |
Expected life of options | | | 1 to 2 years | |
The grant-date fair value of options granted through April 30, 2008 was between $0.05 and $0.04.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
CanAm Uranium Corp., a development stage, mineral-exploration company, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 7, 2004, under the name “Boulder Creek Exploration, Inc.” On November 23, 2007, the Company changed its name to “CanAm Uranium Corp”. The name change was recommended by the board of directors, and approved by the shareholders, because management felt that “CanAm Uranium” would more accurately reflect the primary business of the company: Uranium exploration, development and anticipated production. The focus of the business and management remained the same after the name change.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements are prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time.
We are in the development stage and have an accumulated deficit, shareholders’ capital and working capital deficit of $7,414,649, $1,109,911 and $(700,698) respectively, at April 30, 2008 and have a net loss and cash used in operations of 152,272 and $451,585, respectively, for the quarter ended April 30, 2008. Additionally, we had an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficit of $6,429,723, and $854,706, respectively, at April 30, 2007 and have a net loss and cash used by operations of $2,570,621and $516,745, respectively, for the quarter ended April 30, 2007.
While we were attempting to generate revenues, we did not generate revenues through April 30, 2008. During the quarter ended April 30, 2008, the Company sold shares of common stock for net proceeds of $21,030. For the quarter ended April 30, 2007, the Company had no borrowings. Management intends to attempt to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate sales volume and in our ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue in existence.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the policy below as critical to our business operations and understanding of our financial results:
Related parties
Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities.
Intangibles and other long-lived assets
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, we review the carrying value of intangibles and other long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.
Accounting for Stock Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R establishes the financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans. As required by SFAS No. 123R, we recognize the cost resulting from all stock-based payment transactions including shares issued under our stock option plans in the financial statements. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R will have a negative impact on our future results of operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET REVENUES
For the quarter ended April 30, 2008, CanAm recorded $0 of revenues, compared to $0 of revenues for the quarter ending April 30, 2007.
While we continue our exploration and development efforts, we will need to raise additional working capital to fund and support our exploration and development programs. We cannot assure you that we will ever be able to successfully implement our plan of operations or increase our revenues in future periods.
OPERATING EXPENSES
For the quarter ended April 30, 2008, operating expenses which includes mining exploration costs, consulting fees, professional fees and other selling, general and administrative, were $152,272 compared to $2,570,621 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007, an decrease of $2,418,349 or 94%.
The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to the following:
1. | Mining property development decreased from $69,955 in the period ending April 30, 2007, to $5,000 in the period ending April 30, 2008, a decrease of $64,955, or 93 %. This was due to the fact that the company significantly decreased its property acquisition and expenditure activity during the quarter. |
2. | Professional fees decreased to $44,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 2008 as compared to $123,707 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007, an increase of $79,707 or 64%. This decrease is primarily related to an decrease in accounting fees associated with the audit of our financial statements, and legal expenses associated with other general corporate matters, and the employment of various specialist consultants. |
General and administrative expenses increased to $152,272 for the quarter ended April 30, 2008 from $2,570,621 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007, an decrease of $2,418,349 or 94%.
Rent expense did not increase or change.
LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
We reported loss from operations of $152,272 for the quarter ended April 30, 2008 as compared to a loss from operations of $2,570,621 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007, an decrease of $2,418,349 or approximately 94%.
Interest Expense was $0 or for the quarter ended April 30, 2008 as compared to none in the quarter ended April 30, 2007 which reflects an increase in our notes payable to certain security holders.
OVERALL
We reported a net loss for the quarter ended April 30, 2008 of $152,272 compared to a net loss for the quarter ended April 30, 2007 of $2,570,621. This translates to an overall basic and diluted per-share loss available to shareholders of $0.00 for the quarter ended April 30, 2008, compared to basic and diluted per-share loss of $0.03 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At April 30, 2008, we had a cash balance of $3,564 and working capital deficit of $700,698. Our current assets primarily include $224,500 of prepaid expenses. Our current liabilities primarily consist of approximately $928,762 of accounts payable and accrued expenses.
CanAm does not currently have an adequate source of reliable, long-term revenue to fund operations. As a result, CanAm is reliant on outside sources of capital funding. There can be no assurance that CanAm will in the future achieve a consistent and reliable revenue stream adequate to support continued operations. In addition, there is no assurance that CanAm will be able to secure adequate sources of new capital funding, whether it is in the form of share capital, debt, or other financing sources.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” , under which entities will now be permitted to measure many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on its financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
As of April 30, 2008, we had cash reserves of approximately $3564.
On April 30, 2008, the Company elected to not exercise its option to purchase the Bancroft mining claims expired, without CanAm Uranium purchasing such mining claims. Can Uranium does not believe that the $380,000 purchase price merited payment based on the results of exploration in area covered by the claims and did not have sufficient cash funds to exercise its option. The Bancroft mining claims are the subject of that certain Property Option Agreement dated October 23, 2006, as amended, by and between CanAm Uranium and El Nino Ventures Inc., pursuant to which CanAm acquired an option to purchase the Bancroft mining claims. The Bancroft claims are leases to mine mineralized material, granted by the Province of Ontario, Canada, and provide the holder of the leases the exclusive right to explore for and develop mineralized material under 37 claims, covering approximately 3,952 hectares of real property, located in the southeastern part of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
We have not determined our plan with respect to our Wheeler-Beckett, Don MacCarthy, Reilly and OK Lake Properties for which we currently have options.
We believe that we will use our funds to pay filing fees and claim maintenance fees on those properties and for our general operating and corporate expenses. Our operating expenses for the next twelve months are estimated to include:
- $36,000 Rent
- $150,000 Management fees
- $100,000 Consulting expenses
- $10,000 Legal Fees
- $4,000 Transfer Agent Fees
- $40,000 Auditor Fees
- $ 15,000 News Wire Services
We currently do not have sufficient funds to pay our operating expenses for the next twelve months and we intend to try to raise funds but there is no assurance that we will be able to raise adequate capital.
The suggested plan to explore Wheeler-Beckett has been budgeted at $500,000, to include ground work and further development of the property, if we come to a plan to explore the Wheeler-Beckett we will not have sufficient cash reserves to satisfy our cash requirements in order to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months following the date of this Annual Report. We will require further funding to continue.
If we come up with a plan to explore our Don MacCarthy, OK Lake and Reilly Uranium Property Claims, we will not have sufficient cash reserves to satisfy our cash requirements in order to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months following the date of this Annual Report. We will require further funding in order continue.
Over the next twelve months, we plan to raise funds through the sale of our common stock or through loans. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in arranging the required financing. Unless we raise funds through the sale of our common stock or through loans, we cannot further explore or develop our properties. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise adequate capital.
Our future success will be materially dependent upon our ability to satisfy additional financing requirements and joint ventures on our current property option agreements. We are reviewing our options to raise equity capital and joint ventures. We cannot estimate when we will begin to realize any significant revenue. In order to satisfy our requisite budget, we have held and will continue to conduct negotiations with various investors and joint venture candidates. We cannot predict whether these negotiations will result in additional investment income for us.
We have not received revenue from operations during the quarter ended April 30, 2008. We cannot estimate when we will begin to realize any revenue.
OUR PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR NEXT 12 MONTHS
We are an exploration stage company and we do not have any proven or probable reserves on any of our properties.
Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is possibly to develop and explore our Wheeler-Beckett prospect in the Saskatchewan Athabasca Basin Canada. Our plans for the next twelve months are very uncertain and dependent on negotiations with Northwind Resources for property payment extensions. There are no work programs planned for the other properties within the next 12 months, unless done so in a Joint Venture.
Wheeler-Beckett Properties
The suggested plan to explore Wheeler-Beckett has been budgeted at $500,000, to include ground work and further development of the property. The plan may include but not be limited to seismic work, radiometric, drill, and various other surveys to test for economic uranium mineralization.
We require to make a $50,000 payment to remain current for the 100% interest in the Wheeler-Beckett property within the next 12 month period.
Other Claims
There are no suggested plans to explore the Don MacCarthy, Reilly, or OK Lake Properties. In order to keep in good standing in the next 12 months, it is required we pay to third party vendors:
Don MacCarthy $150,000 and 500,000 shares
Reilly Uranium Property $10,000
OK Lake Property to carry out exploration expenditures of $50,000 on or before November 30, 2008 or issue 500,000 shares at the companies election
We have not initiated any exploration activities on these properties as of the date of this Annual Report. We have no operator in place to assist us in the exploration and development of our claims and we have not decided whether we will utilize any additional funds to explore or develop our properties in the next twelve months.
Events Subsequent to the Quarter Ended April 30, 2008
On May 6, 2008, CanAm the Company agreed with 14 holders of convertible debentures of the Company, due 2010, to amend the terms and conditions of the convertible debentures held by such holders. The convertible debentures represent an aggregate principle amount of $445,000 owed by the Company to the debenture holders.

On May 6, 2008, the Company offered, sold and issued 19,962,500 shares of common stock of the Company to 14 holders of convertible debentures of the Company, due 2010, at a conversion price of $0.01 per share, pursuant to the conversion terms of certain convertible debentures, as amended, and as further described above. The portion of debentures converted represented an aggregate of $199,625 of $445,000 debt owed by the Company to the debentures holders.
