The Company announces the appointment of Mr. J. Allan Ringler as a director to

remaining vacancies on the Board, the objective being to attract experienced,

governance practices going forward.

corporate and financial services to public companies. Mr. Ringler has been

of Commerce degree from the University of Windsor. He is a Certified Management
Accountant and a member of the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and

The Company also announces that its shares have been suspended from trading on

in a timely manner. With the aforementioned changes taking place on the Board,
it is the Company's intention to respond to these requirements and to try to
have the suspension lifted as soon as possible; however, there can be no
assurance that the Company's efforts will result in the suspension being lifted
by the TSXV.
