ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
 
On August 4, 2011, the Registrant dismissed its independent accountant, EFP Rotenberg LLP with DNTW Chartered Accountants, LLP, 8953 Woodbine Avenue, Markham, ON L3R OJ9, Canada as its new independent accountant.  The replacement was made in order to obtain an independent accountant with both Canadian and PCAOB qualification.  Besides a standard going concern qualification, the former independent accountant’s report on the financial statements for the both of the two past fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  The decision to change accountants was approved by the registrant’s board of directors.  During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through June 30, 2011, when our former accountant was replaced, there have been no disagreements with the former accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its report.
 
On August 10, 2011, the registrant received a letter regarding the change of accountants from its former accountant, which letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.
 
ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENHT OF CERTAIN OFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS                  
 
On August 4, 2011, the registrant’s director, Todd Sterck, resigned.
