"This is to advise the Board has scheduled a hearing for June 16, 2008, to be held at the Board's offices located at 1 Front Street West, 5th Floor East, Suite 5400, Toronto, Ontario. The hearing will commence at 9:30 a.m.

My comments:

Although the Board has scheduled a hearing it should be pointed out, to my understanding, that the Board has not yet made a decision on whether it will retain jurisdiction over these matters. I expect that the Board may answer that question on June 16th, 2008.

Please keep posted.
