2) | We have prepared an internal comparative financial statement as at June 30, 2006. As per our discussion, these statements have been prepared by management and accordingly have not been reviewed by our auditors. They have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP and are consistent with our reporting as at December 31, 2005.

3. | We note your response to comment 28 in our letter dated August 15, 2006. If the changes to working capital accounts are truly non-cash in nature, the effects are required to be excluded from the statement and disclosed. For example, converting debt to equity is a non-cash transaction. Please reconsider the nature of the changes in working capital and revise the statement to include only changes that affect cash and cash equivalents and valid non-cash transactions in a supplemental disclosure. |
|
3) | The Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 exclude any non-cash transaction – such as converting debt to equity. |

We also note that you operate in Canada and the United States. You are required to disclose the geographic information required by paragraph 38 of SFAS No. 131. |
