  • The net loss and comprehensive loss for the three months ended July 31, 2021 was $262,158 (July 31, 2020 - $1,022,534). The decreased loss for the quarter is mainly attributed to the following:

    • decrease in general and administrative expenses - $1,033,769 for the quarter ended July 31, 2021 (July 31, 2020 - $1,788,133) which included the following notable expenses: consulting fees of $14,449 (July 31, 2020 - $89,131); research and development expenses of $0 (July 31, 2020 - $332,999); lease interest of $16,890 (July 31, 2020 - $37,090); filing fees of $5,958 (July 31, 2020 - $13,232); office expenses of $317,937 (July 31, 2020 - $169,889 - the increase in expenses is attributable to an increase in insurance premiums, compliance expenses and an increase in PED operations), professional fees of $77,983 (July 31, 2020 - $113,503); management fees of $52,500 (July 31, 2020 - $61,000); rent of $54,109 (July 31, 2020 - $80,883), remuneration and benefits of $476,399 (July 31, 2020 - $632,315); and share-based payments of $17,544 (July 31, 2020 - $257,058); and
    • decrease in selling expenses attributed to the costs associated with the revenue generated - $0 for the quarter ended July 31, 2021 (July 31, 2020 - $19,260). Selling expenses lowered mainly due to the hampering of business operations and consequent marketing efforts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the halting of some Company promotional, marketing and travel activities.
