Comment

Once again a Canadian company completes a flow through financing, which is good for them, as they collect money easily, and good for Canadian shareholders, whose risk is eliminated with the tax benefits they derive from flow through, but bad for us non Canadian shareholders.

The only compensation is that, in this particular case, the placing price was substantially higher than the current share price, minimising the dilution for those of us not able to benefit from these generous tax write offs.
