Operational Milestones

Since listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange in April 2018, management has been particularly focused on executing on the Company's business plan and furthering the numerous opportunities that have been in development and were discussed in detail in the Company's Listing Statement, including, but not limited to, the following:
