*About CO2 GRO Inc.*

GROW's mission is to accelerate the growth of all value plants safely, effectively and profitably using our patent protected advanced CO2 Delivery Solutions™. It is a commercially proven technology that is easily adopted into all covered cultivation including greenhouses, shade, hoop and tunnel houses, indoor and outdoor grow operations.

GROW's target markets are the 50 billion square feet of global greenhouse space (USDA) and the 4.62 billion acres of global cropland (USGS). While indoor gassing of CO2 to enhance crop yields has been practiced for decades, 85% of the world's greenhouses cannot use CO2 gassing economically due mostly to heat ventilation which causes the CO2 gas to escape. Outdoor growers cannot gas CO2 into the atmosphere to the ideal levels required of up to 1500 ppm.

GROW's CO2 Delivery Solutions™ naturally and safely dissolves CO2 gas into water creating an aqueous CO2 solution which is then misted directly on plant leaves. GROW has demonstrated improving crop yields by up to 30% with up to 30% faster growth. The CO2 solution's micro droplets create an aqueous film around the entire leaf surface, isolating the leaf from the atmosphere. This creates a diffusion gradient favoring CO2 transport into the leaf and other gases out of the leaf. Increased carbon availability enhances photosynthesis resulting in faster and larger plant growth. CO2 Delivery Solutions™ has been demonstrated on crops including Cannabis, lettuce, kale, microgreens, peppers, flowers and medical tobacco. Growers everywhere can now supplement CO2 to their crops using CO2 Delivery Solutions™, increasing plant yields and profits.

BioLargo Inc (OTCMKTS:BLGO) said that its subsidiary BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies Inc (BLEST), confirmed the potential of a new water treatment technology to solve the global drinking water contamination problem with man-made “forever chemicals." The chemicals, resistant to breaking down in the environment, are known as per and fluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS. BioLargo's engineering subsidiary, BLEST has developed a working prototype of a device called the Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator (AEC) that was proven effective at eliminating a toxic soup of PFAS from water. The company’s AEC technology solution to the PFAS crisis is going to be field tested and then launched commercially. Arizona Silver Exploration Inc (CVE:AZS) (OTCMKTS:AZASF) has purchased nearly a dozen mining claims surrounding its Philadelphia project in Arizona. The 11 claims cover a significant portion of the old workings and potential strike extension of the former operating Arabian-Philadelphia mine on the property. The county is the home of the Oatman mining district, which produced over 2 million ounces of gold from high-grade veins via underground mining in the early 1900s. NexTech AR Solutions Corp (CSE:NTAR) (OTCMKTS:NEXCF) shares jumped Wednesday after a bullish analyst note from Starwood Research called the augmented reality company a “veritable unicorn farm” of potential billion-dollar businesses. The firm upped its 12-month price target to US$20 just months after initiating coverage in November with a US$5 target but said NexTech has done enough since then to justify a major bump. “Since our initial report, less than 3 months ago, [NexTech] has delivered strong results with rapidly increasing revenues,” Starwood wrote. “However, our key impetus for increasing the upside target to $20, is NEXCF’s launch of three new AR initiatives – which we believe can be transformative for NEXCF’s revenues and valuation of the stock, over the next 12 months.” Silvercorp Metals Inc’s (NYSEAMERICAN:SVM) (TSX:SVM) operations in China are usually suspended two weeks for the Chinese New Year holiday. During the 2020 holiday season, the company said it production was suspended on January 17 and was scheduled to restart on February 1. Due to the coronavirus situation, China’s central government extended the Chinese New Year holiday by three days to February 3, and as instructed by the provincial governments, the company now expects a restart date of February 10. The company expects to catch-up on the lost production time with shortened holidays in the future.  Global Atomic Corporation (TSE:GLO) (OTCMKTS:GLATF) on Wednesday provided an update on the Dasa Uranium Project in the Republic of Niger and on the BST Joint Venture Zinc Project in Turkey.

We believe Dyadic's stock price is poised to move higher upon additional data and collaborations in 2020.” Imagination Park Technologies Inc (CSE:IP) (OTCMKTS:IPNFF), an augmented reality company, has started working with the network and communications firm KLA Laboratories as a partner in its KLArity Ecosystem Partners Platform. The platform is designed for KLA’s clients, which include Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F), Little Caesars Arena and others, to better understand emerging technologies and how the integration of those solutions could improve their business. Imagination Park’s AR-as-a Service model allows businesses of all sizes to implement their own AR campaigns without any prior programming or technology experience. Genprex Inc (NASDAQ:GNPX) said that independent researchers reported in a recent study that TUSC2, a tumor suppressor gene and the active agent in Genprex’s Oncoprex immunogene therapy, is a potential target and biomarker for thyroid carcinoma. Published in the ‘International Journal of Molecular Sciences,’ the study found that TUSC2 overexpression decreased thyroid cancer proliferation, migration and invasion. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability are essential steps in tumor metastasis. The researchers noted that “TUSC2 forced expression reduced thyroid cancer cell proliferation” and could represent “an important tool” to arrest cancer cell proliferation, while TUSC2 restoration decreased the migration and invasion of thyroid cancer cell lines. The results of DRDGOLD Limited (JSE:DRD) (NYSE:DRD), the South African gold producer, for the six months ending on December 31 will be unveiled on February 12th via the company’s web site (www.drdgold.com).

DGAP-News: Eurolife Brands / Key word(s): Miscellaneous
30.01.2020 / 09:00
The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 30, 2020) - *EuroLife Brands (CSE: EURO) (FSE: 3CMA) (OTC Pink: EURPF) ("EuroLife" or the "Company"),* a vertically integrated enterprise focused on the pan-European hemp, cannabinoid, and health and wellness sector, is pleased to announce it has finalized an agreement with a leading global cannabis company with a market cap greater than $1 billion, to develop its online education portal, accessed by many hundreds of cannabis retailers and staff across Canada. The budtender portal was designed to facilitate knowledge retention by having each user complete a quiz after each module and complete a final-course exam. Upon completion of each module and a final course exam, budtenders earn an e-learning certificate showing proof they have completed the course.

"Through EuroLife's technology division, we are uniquely positioned to deliver an intuitive, user-driven online portal with required level of education to ensure budtenders are familiar with cannabis products and deliver a high level of customer service relating to the cannabis company's products," said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer, EuroLife Brands Inc. "We are pleased to partner with a leading cannabis company to deliver a refreshed budtender education portal. Continuous education is valuable in all industries and cannabis is no exception. Retail locations striving to deliver high quality and knowledgeable service will be able to complement existing training programs with our budtender portal."

EuroLife has leveraged the skills of its design and technology teams to design and develop a budtender education portal. The concept will include easy access to product information and educational articles on topics ranging from cannabis taxonomy, safety in the household, responsible usage and a strong focus on vaping. The platform also incorporates dynamic and interactive elements to facilitate learning with detailed reporting and analytics, options for gamification and social elements such as shareable completion badges. Once launched, legal cannabis retailers across Canada will have the opportunity to direct employees to the platform to learn in more detail about the product brands while increasing their knowledge of all aspects of cannabis through visually stimulating educational content.

The objective of the project is to create a secure and effective education portal to budtenders nationwide to be well versed with the cannabis company's brands and branded products. Budtenders will register for the portal access through a secure online application process and once accepted, they will be able to begin working through a number of courses on cannabis 101 topics, brand products and processes, as part of their certification.

Launch of the Canada-wide budtender learning portal is projected for the first quarter 2020. Development and ongoing maintenance fees of the online portal will contribute to the financial success of the EuroLife Brands group of companies.

The Company also announces it has granted incentive stock options to purchase a total of 3,300,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.05 per share for a period of two years to certain directors and officers in accordance with the provisions of its stock option plan.

Tonix Pharmaceuticals establishes niche as PTSD expert

$
0
0
Tonmya, its chief drug, is designed to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The pill has clinched a coveted Breakthrough mark from the US Food and Drug Administration and is already in Phase 3 trials. Another key product, TNX-801, is a potential smallpox vaccine that is a synthetic form of horsepox. What Tonix Pharmaceuticals does: Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp (NASDAQ:TNXP) is in the throes of developing an array of pharmaceutical products which take aim at neuropsychiatric conditions. Its chief treatment is Tonmya (TNX-102SL), which contains 2.8 mg of cyclobenzaprine HCl and treats post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as well as fibromyalgia and agitation in Alzheimer’s disease, plus alcohol use disorders, and is in Phase 3 trials. Drilling into the details, Tonmya has proved successful in improving the quality of sleep for patients with PTSD as well as those with fibromyalgia, which triggers musculoskeletal pain and fatigue. Tonmya has already been elevated to the rank of being a Breakthrough therapy by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Also in the New York City-based company’s line-up are TNX-801, a possible smallpox vaccine that is a synthetic version of horsepox, and TNX-601 CR or tianeptine oxalate, another treatment for PTSD as well as depression. Tianeptine oxalate is a polymorph and salt of tianeptine, which has been used for decades across European, Asian and Latin American countries, but has yet to be approved by the FDA in the US. Last year, Tonix won a European patent that protects TNX-601 for treating neurocognitive dysfunction linked to corticosteroid treatment. The company has a few other products, which include TNX-701, a kind of small molecule used to prevent radiation effects that is popular on the biodefense front as well as TNX-1300 (double-mutant cocaine esterase), which is already in a Phase 2 stage to curb cocaine intoxication. Taking a look a bit further ahead to its pre-clinical pipeline are Tonix’s TNX-1500 (anti-CD154), a monoclonal antibody which can be used to prevent the rejection of organ transplants as well as some autoimmune conditions, and TNX-1700 (rTFF2), a biologic that treats gastric and pancreatic cancers.  How is it doing: Tonix is making considerable advances on the clinical trial front. Its scientists have thus far enrolled 250 civilian and military patients with PTSD in its Phase 3 RECOVERY trial which kicked off in March of 2019 and is evaluating Tonmya’s effectiveness in treating this disorder which stems from trauma such as military combat. Put simply, PTSD is a memory processing disorder characterized by the reliving of trauma via nightmares and flashbacks. Results from an interim analysis using the drug are set to be unveiled in the first quarter of 2020 while the study’s topline data should arrive in the second quarter. All of the patients taking part in the Phase 3 study suffered a trauma less than nine years ago. On top of this, Tonix has also begun signing up patients with fibromyalgia in a Phase 3 RELIEF trial; interim data from this analysis is expected in the second half of 2020. In the category of additional victories, the company’s agitation in Alzheimer’s disease program, which focuses on its drug TNX-102 SL - is phase 2 ready as well and is likely to generate considerable interest as there are currently no FDA-approved treatments for agitation in Alzheimer’s disease – which also involves sleep deprivation. The FDA has already tagged the drug’s development as a Fast Track program and a patent has been filed to further TNX-102 SL’s use to treat agitation and cognitive decline in dementia and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. The company’s development for alcohol use disorder, meanwhile, is in the pre-investigational new drug application stage. On January 29, the firm unveiled pre-clinical results of TNX-801 - the possible smallpox vaccine that is a synthetic version of horsepox - in a poster at the 2020 ASM Biothreats Conference held from January 28 to the 30th in Arlington, Virginia. The poster, which was entitled “Synthetic Chimeric Horsepox Virus (scHPXV) Vaccination Protects Macaques from Monkeypox,” showcased the analysis of TNX-801 and offered proof that it works. At the company’s helm as founder and CEO is Dr. Seth Lederman, who has a medical degree from Columbia University’s medical school where he later worked as a professor and as an attending physician in the Edward Daniels Faulkner Arthritis Clinic at Columbia Presbyterian. While at Columbia, Dr. Lederman discovered the CD40-Ligand and also worked on clarifying the molecular basis of Tcell helper function. Making the switch to the pharma business, Lederman went on to set up Targent Pharmaceuticals, which sold levoleucovorin, a treatment for advanced colorectal cancer, now marketed as Fusilev by Spectrum Pharmaceuticals. Tonix’s chief medical officer, meanwhile, is Dr. Gregory Sullivan, a psychiatrist by trade, who was most recently an assistant professor of Psychiatry in the department of Psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center as well as a research scientist at the New York State Psychiatric Institute. His expertise is in the treatment of anxiety and mood disorders, including PTSD. Also sitting on Tonix’s Scientific advisory board is Dr. Harvey Moldofsky, the medical director of the Sleep Disorders Clinic of the Center for Sleep and Chronobiology as well as the president of the Toronto Psychiatric Research Foundation.  Having focused his career on studying sleep physiology and biologic rhythms, Dr. Moldofsky has become an expert in the effects of fibromyalgia and the connections between musculoskeletal pain and fatigue. Inflection points: Interim analysis from Tonix’s Phase 3 trial, which has enrolled 250 civilian and military PTSD patients and is evaluating the effectiveness of Tonmya (TNX-102SL), will be unveiled in the first quarter of 2020, while topline data will be released in the second quarter. Interim data for the trial measuring the benefits of Tonmya for patients with fibromyalgia are expected in the second half of this year. Tonix’s pre-clinical pipeline of drugs, which have yet to hit trials, include TNX-1500 (anti-CD154), a monoclonal antibody used to treat organ transplant rejection, and TNX-1700 (rTFF2), which treats gastric and pancreatic cancers. What the boss says: "PTSD is a relatively new indication and I like to think of Tonix as the world leader in PTSD drug research,” Dr. Lederman told Proactive in an interview. “There are two approved drugs on the market, but they aren’t viewed as very effective to the point that Veteran Administration guidelines don’t even recommend pharmacotherapy as a first-line therapy.” “If you look at the national PTSD problem, about three-quarters of our PTSD patients are civilians, so our latest study will reflect that,” Lederman added.

Klondike Gold Reports 2.1 g/t Au over 28.9 meters and 31.2 g/t Au over 0.5 meter at Stander Zone, Yukon *VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 30, 2020 / **Klondike Gold Corp. (TSXV:KG)(FRA:LBDP)(OTC:KDKGF) ("Klondike Gold" or the "Company")* is pleased to report exploration results including assays from nineteen drill holes from the 2019 drill program testing the Stander Zone Central along the Nugget Fault on the Company's wholly owned 586 square kilometer Klondike District Property, Yukon Territory. The drill program intersected broad zones of gold mineralization containing local intervals of high-grade gold consistently across a 200-meter strike length.

*SUMMARY:*

· The Stander Zone, a 15 Km magnetic low (fault) associated with gold mineralization traceable across the northwestern end of the property, is divided into three five-kilometer segments: "Stander Zone NW", "Stander Zone Central", and "Stander Zone SE".
· *Drill r**esults reported here are from Stander Zone Central between Km 6.7 and Km 6.9.*
· GT-Probe results are also reported and provide exploration targets for the 2020 season.
· *Overall drill and geologic results **support the Company's interpretation that D4 structures are conduits for gold-bearing fluids and that both D4 and D3 structures are potentially gold mineralized exploration targets with a cross-cutting pattern analogous to a checkerboard.*
· Remaining 2019 drill results plus results from other work are pending release.

*DRILL RESULT HIGHLIGHTS*

· Drill hole EC19-325 intersected Stander Zone mineralization from surface grading *1.19 g/t Au over 35.6 meters *(4.40-40.00 m).
· Drill hole EC19-326 intersected Stander Zone mineralization from surface grading *0.83 g/t Au over 44.65 meters *(5.80-50.45 m).
· Drill hole EC19-327 intersected Stander Zone mineralization from surface grading *1.21 g/t Au over 45.60 meters *(1.15-46.75 m).
· Drill hole EC19-267 (previously announced) intersected mineralization grading* 1,009 g/t Au with 1,035 g/t Ag over 1.0 meter *(104.00-105.00 m). The gold is hosted in a fault structure now interpreted as a cross-cutting northeast-trending structure (a "D4" structure in the Company's orogenic model) that cuts the northwest-trending ("D3") Stander Zone. This further supports the Company's interpretation that D4 structures are conduits for gold-bearing fluids and that both D4 and D3 structures are potentially gold mineralized exploration targets with a cross-cutting pattern comparable to a checkerboard.

*STANDER ZONE CENTRAL DRILL RESULTS*

Assay results for samples from nineteen (19) drill holes (EC19-255 to EC19-259 plus EC19-266 to EC19-269) (EC19-270 to EC19-272 plus EC19-320 to EC19-335) are newly reported here. The nineteen holes were drilled in an area of 200 meters by 100 meters located at Km 6.7 to Km 6.9 along the newly defined 15-kilometer baseline length of the Stander Zone (see discussion below). Significant intersections from these nineteen holes are listed in Table 1.

*Figure 1: **Drill Plan Map of Stander Zone Central drilling, also with GT-Probe locations discussed below.*

*STANDER ZONE CENTRAL GT-PROBE RESULTS*:

The Company engaged GroundTruth Exploration Inc. ("GroundTruth") of Dawson, YT to conduct GT-Probe surveying, an overburden penetrating system designed to sample bedrock, to identify gold along the Nugget Fault corresponding to strike extensions of Stander Zone gold mineralization.

A total of 75 samples were collected on each of two lines spaced 400 meters apart, with samples at 5-meter spaced intervals, at Stander Zone Central (Km 6.5 and Km 6.9) to test for extensions in both directions. Both GT-Probe lines returned anomalous results in areas where extensions of Stander Zone mineralization could be expected. The southeastern line returned 5 samples across 20 meters with values up to 0.5 g/t Au. One hundred meters further south on the southeastern line, the GT-Probe detected a previously unknown second gold interval of 3 samples across 10 meters with values up to 0.9 g/t Au.

The survey successfully detected interpreted extensions of the Stander Zone gold mineralization as well as identifying a potentially new parallel zone. These will be priority drill targets in 2020.

*STANDER ZONE MAGNETIC MODEL OVERVIEW*

The Stander Zone gold mineralization and associated Nugget Fault is marked in geophysics by an intense northwest trending magnetic low, a major "D3" structure as defined in the Company's orogenic gold model (see News Release December 10, 2019). This magnetic low target associated with gold mineralization is traceable across the northwestern end of the Klondike District Property *for a distance of 15 kilometers*. To aid exploration and understanding of the scale of this gold-mineralized structure, the Company has divided the magnetic low into three five-kilometer segments along a 15-kilometer baseline length as measured from point "Km 10" in outcrop in Upper Eldorado Creek. The segments of the Stander Zone are shown in Figure 2.

*Figure 2: Location of Stander Zone segments.*

The northwest 5-kilometer segment from "Km 0" to Km 5" ("Stander Zone NW") has had no systematic exploration. Prospecting within this segment located an historic (c.1900) undocumented bedrock shaft with quartz in the ‘ore pile' (assays to 2.3 g/t Au at Km 2) and gold in quartz veining in outcrop (assays to 8.5 g/t Au at Km 3) within a significant fault zone now interpreted to be the northwest continuation of the Nugget Fault. This portion of the Stander Zone is offset slightly southward across the Eldorado Fault.

The central 5-kilometer segment ("Stander Zone Central") includes nearly all of the Stander Zone gold showings and has seen the vast majority of recent work including drilling. The central segment has gold mineralized quartz veins in outcrop and drilling across the 5-kilometer length, from Glacier Gulch (visible gold, assays to 9 g/t Au at Km 5) to Upper Eldorado Creek (visible gold, assays to 24 g/t Au at Km 10). The area of drilling described in this news release occurs between Km 6.7 and Km 6.9.

The southwest 5-kilometer segment ("Stander Zone SE") has also had only cursory exploration. It begins at Upper Eldorado Creek (visible gold, assays to 24 g/t Au at Km 10). Brief prospecting within this segment in 2019 located gold in quartz veining in outcrop in a creek (assays to 4 g/t Au at Km 12).

*STANDER ZONE CENTRAL GOLD MINERALIZATION*

Stander Zone Central drilling has intersected gold mineralization from surface over broad widths, consistent with previous drill results.

Gold in Stander Zone Central outcrops at surface between Km 6.7 and Km 6.9. The gold is coarse, visible free gold usually 1-mm in size but commonly occurs in larger clots to 1-cm size, hosted by quartz veining. Individual quartz veins range in size from 0.1 to 1.0+ meters with many close-spaced veins defining individual zones. These quartz vein zone(s) strike to the northwest adjacent to and above (in the hangingwall of) the controlling Nugget Fault. Individual quartz veins have a shallow 30-degree northeast dip however the aggregate quartz vein zones geometrically extend sub-horizontally away from the Nugget Fault for approximately 50 meters, forming gold zone(s) exposed at surface and running parallel to the Stander Zone / Nugget Fault along the slope.

*STANDER ZONE CENTRAL DRILL INTERSECTION*

The Company announced a drill intersection of 1,009 g/t Au with 1,035 g/t Ag over 1.0 meter in EC19-267 (see news release August 6, 2019). Subsequently, the Company re-engaged structural consultants SRK (Toronto) who conducted detailed core relogging and examination of oriented core measurements. This work interpreted the gold-bearing interval to be related to a cross-cutting northeast-trending structure (a "D4" structure in the Company's orogenic model) that cuts the northwest-trending ("D3") Stander Zone / Nugget Fault. This supports the Company's interpretation that D4 structures are conduits for gold-bearing fluids and that both D4 and D3 structures are potentially gold mineralized exploration targets with a cross-cutting pattern analogous to a checkerboard.

*MACHINE LEARNING APPLICATION AT STANDER ZONE*

The Company has developed and applied specific custom ("machine learning") algorithms to the main area of Stander Zone Central gold mineralization which has been used successfully to identify potential new drill targets. The objective was to test for correlations or linkages in mineralized vein sets in a data-rich area. Iterative processing identified linkages to veins sets in high priority target areas known to the Company, but also assigned high priority to areas not highlighted by other means. These new areas are considered for drill testing in 2020 - a successful outcome. The Company is extending these custom training algorithms to identify prospective areas in data-poor areas such as the Stander Zone NW and Stander Zone SE. The objective of this work is to develop new tools to accelerate identifying new targets for drilling.

*2019 ASSAYS PENDING*

Remaining unreleased 2019 drill results plus results from other work such as additional soil sampling, GT-Probe surveying at Lone Star Zone, rock (channel) sampling and oriented core analysis are also pending.

*DRILL HOLE STATISTICS*

Drill holes EC19-270 to EC19-272 were HTW-diameter and the remainder were NTW-diameter. Drill holes are generally oriented with 210 azimuth and -55 dip or -85 dip at collar, except where noted in the following table. The purpose of varying collar dip and azimuth was to test for cross-cutting structures and to obtain structural measurements from the use of oriented core tools.

Anti Internet Child Exploitation Team Created *LONDON, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 30, 2020 / *Anti Internet Child Exploitation Team Council (AICET Council) has been created by the federal Canadian charity Internet Sense First. Why? The online vulnerabilities of our children have increased by 10,000% in the past few years because of the Internet* and actions of unknowns, knowns, and our children. We impress upon everyone globally, that catching up to the digital age is a necessity for the sake of our children, in every country of the world.

AICET is a group of specialists actively responding to the explosive growth of child exploitation online. AICET speakers are donating their time, are dedicated to the safety of children online, and simply request expenses to be paid. A donation to Internet Sense First in Canada, or a charity with like goals in another country where we present, is all that is suggested for remuneration.

Not only are children today victimized by unknown predators but, tragically, their peers as well. They can include children as young as eleven years of age and younger, who have been socialized by the widespread and easy availability of pornography online.

*AICET Council Details*

We are a group of specialists actively responding to the explosive growth of child exploitation online. Not only are children today victimized by unknown predators but, tragically, their peers as well. They can include children as young as eleven years of age, who have been socialized by the widespread and easy availability of pornography online. Upon being asked to be a part of AICET Council, we gave a resounding "yes". Our children urgently need our help on a global basis.

Our presentations are based on the Theory of Digital Supervision developed by Charlene Doak-Gebauer, the Founder and Chair of AICET Council*. We contribute through our individual specialties* which include: expertise in education, computer science/network management in education, trauma identification/treatment for child sexual assault, counselling services, media education, legal implications, approach to pornography with children, law enforcement, and motivational support for the hope segment of Digital Supervision. The Theory of Digital Supervision is divided into three parts - awareness, method, and hope. It was developed by Charlene to be a user-friendly approach to online child protection.

We believe in the safety of families and children online to the extent, we are donating our time. We request that travel expenses be covered. If remuneration is offered, we usually request that the funds be donated to a local charity within the hosting community with goals similar to ours, in the nation that is engaging us. In Canada, we choose the Federal Canadian Charity Internet Sense First, which provides funding for victims of Internet child exploitation and education for parents, caregivers, and professionals about Digital Supervision.

Please contact our Chair, Charlene Doak-Gebauer, to book a presentation or conference. Presentations can be half-day or full-day. Three to five speakers will be selected for presentations, based on location of venue, travel considerations, and contractual requirements. AICET Council provides the presentations; venues do all arrangements, bookings, venue rentals, ticket sales, and other arrangement details. Call *01-519-854-1249* or email, info@internetsensefirst.com.

All parents, grandparents, caregivers, professionals, and government leaders are strongly encouraged to experience presentations. We have advice, information and some answers to online child protection, that so many people are asking for and need. NB Attendees at conferences are eligible for a Certificate of Completion for the Theory of Digital Supervision training for online child protection, provided it is a full-day conference to allow for full Digital Supervision training.
