LEISURE CANADA PROVIDES ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING & BOARD OF DIRECTORS UPDATE

Following the annual general meeting and the board of directors meeting of June 29, 2007, Leisure Canada Inc.'s current directors of the company, Walter H. Berukoff, Peter de Visser, Guy Chartier, Ken Taylor and David Oliver were all re-elected by the majority of the shareholders. Mr. Berukoff will retain the positions of chairman, president and chief executive officer. Mimy Fernandez-Maldonado has been reappointed as the corporate secretary, and KPMG LLP has been reappointed as the company's auditors. The board of directors remains pleased with the progress to date and has given the company a mandate to aggressively move the Cuban projects forward.

The company has appointed Robin Conners to the advisory board. Mr. Conners has over 25 years of experience in the leisure industry, most notably as vice-president of commercial development with the Intrawest Corp. He currently works with St. Joe Company, Florida's largest real estate development company. Mr. Conner's extensive experience in master planning and real estate financing will prove valuable as the company moves into the advanced stages of development.

In addition, Mr. de Visser has been appointed as the interim chief financial officer. Mr. de Visser is the founding partner of Vancouver-based DeVisser Gray Chartered Accountants. He is currently a member of the British Columbia Institute of Chartered Accountants technical subcommittee, which consults with securities regulators in British Columbia. Mr. de Visser is filling the position of CFO made vacant by the departure of Ian Brown, who has left the company to pursue other opportunities. The company thanks Mr. Brown for his contributions and wishes him continued success.

Leisure Canada's debentureholders have agreed to extend the term of the company's subordinated convertible debentures in the principal amount of $600,000 (U.S.). The extension is for one year and the new maturity date is June 30, 2008. The debentures were issued in 1999, and this represents the second time the debentures have been amended. Acceptance of the amended maturity date was received from the TSX Venture Exchange on May 25, 2007.

The debentures bear annual interest at 7 per cent per year, payable semi-annually on June 15 and Dec. 15, and both interest and principal may, at the company's option, be settled by the issue of common shares. The company is up to date in the payment of interest.

No Castro appearance at May Day parade By ANITA SNOW
44 minutes ago



HAVANA - Hundreds of thousands of cheering workers marched through Cuba's Revolution Plaza on Tuesday but Fidel Castro was nowhere to be seen.

ADVERTISEMENT

The place where Castro would have watched the festivities — a raised platform under a towering statue of Cuban colonial independence hero Jose Marti — was instead occupied by his brother Raul.

Castro had attended the annual International Workers' Day march for decades. But the 80-year-old communist leader has not been seen in public since emergency intestinal surgery forced him to step down temporarily nine months ago and temporarily cede his duties to his 75-year-old brother.

In a speech just before the huge annual parade began, Salvador Valdes, secretary general of Cuba's central workers union, hinted it was highly unlikely that Castro would make his first public appearance since stepping down from power.

"A speedy recovery and lots of health, dear Fidel," Valdes said, adding "Viva Fidel!" as the crowd shouted back "Viva!"

The acting president and defense minister, five years younger than his sibling, stood stiffly and smiled, occasionally waving as marchers streamed past, waving plastic Cuban flags, portraits of Fidel Castro and banners denouncing U.S. "imperialism."

Many marchers wore red or white T-shirts that appeared to have been distributed by the Cuban government with a May 1 slogan reading "More solidarity, unity and strength than ever."

Castro issued the latest in a new series of communiques Monday, calling for a revolution in energy production, but gave no hint of whether he would make a May Day appearance.

He reiterated his opposition to U.S. plans to use food crops to produce ethanol for cars, predicting that American fuel needs would be provided with the labor of the world's impoverished sugar cane workers.

"Tomorrow the first of May is a good day to carry these reflections to the workers and all of the poor people of the world," Castro wrote in the communique.

Occasional government photographs and videos of the elder Castro have assured Cubans he is still alive and recovering, appearing stronger and more robust in the most recent images.

But the urgent need by many to see the man who ruled this country for 47 straight years seems to have faded in recent months as life has continued normally under the leadership of Raul Castro.

There will be smaller marches Monday in cities around the island, with the government expecting several million of the nation's 11 million people to participate.

Those gathered in Havana protested the recent U.S. court decision to free on bond anti-communist militant Luis Posada Carriles, pending his trial on U.S. immigration charges. Havana accuses the Cuban-born Posada of orchestrating a 1976 airliner bombing that killed 73 people — a charge he denies.

Demonstrators held signs and banners declaring "Prison for the Executioner" in reference to Posada, accusing the Bush administration of a double standard on terrorism

week all day long........dead money for now...........

sloppy 2day
