(C) Use of Estimates
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of financial position, and revenues and expenses for the year then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates.
(D) Significant Accounting Policies
Technology and Content
Technology and content costs include charges from third party contractors involved in the research and development of new and existing products and services, development, design, and maintenance of our websites, curation and display of services made available on our websites, and infrastructure costs.

Technology and content costs are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Companys functional and reporting currency is the United States Dollar. Assets and liabilities recorded in currencies other than US dollars are translated into USD at the prevailing exchange rates in effect at the end of the reporting period, the historical rate for stockholders equity (deficiency) and revenues, expenses, gains and losses shall be translated at the exchange rate on the dates on which these elements are recognized, or if found to be impractical, the average exchange rate for the period may be used to translate these elements.

(D) Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Foreign Currency Translation (continued)
Adjustments that arise from translation into the reporting currency are recorded as an exchange gain or loss to be included as other comprehensive gain or loss. For the fiscal year 2019, the average exchange rate for the year was CDN$1= US$0.76 (for the fiscal year 2018: CDN$1=US$0.78) and exchange rate as at March 31, 2019 was CDN$1 = US$0.75 (March 31, 2018 was CDN$1 = US$0.78). Transaction gains and losses are recorded in the earnings in the period of settlement.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
In accordance with ASC Topic 280 - "Earnings Per Share," the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock had been issued and if the additional shares of common stock were dilutive.
Potential common stock consists of the incremental common stock issuable upon the exercise of common stock warrants (using the if-converted method). The computation of basic loss per share for the year ended March 31, 2019 excludes potentially dilutive securities of 19,762,867 shares underlying share purchase warrants and convertible notes, because their inclusion would be antidilutive. As a result, the computations of net loss per share for each period presented is the same for both basic and fully diluted.
Potentially dilutive securities outlined in the table below have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2019, and 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents.
Furniture and Equipment
Furniture and equipment items are stated at cost and depreciated to their estimated residual value over their estimated useful lives, which are presently considered to be three years. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are relieved from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are included in the Statements of Operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method.

NOTE 1 - BUSINESS DESCRIPTION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(D) Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Convertible Debts and Derivative Liability
Convertible loan notes issued by the Company have embedded conversion features where principal liability and accrued interest are convertible, at the option of the loan holder, into common shares of the Company, at a price, based on the quoted market price of the Companys common shares on the date of conversion discounted at an agreed percentage. The derivative liability is segregated and initially carried at fair value and subsequently remeasured on each reporting date at their fair value. The difference is taken to income as derivative gains or losses.
The debt discount is amortized over the period of the loan and charged to interest expense. Loans are stated at net of amortized debt discount amount.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740 which requires use of the liability method. Topic 740 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Share-Based Compensation
FASB ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payments awarded to employees, including employee stock option, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, that may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company determines if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (A) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (B) the present obligation is implied because of an entitys past practice or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entitys own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:
Level 1
inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2
inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable of the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;
Level 3
inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table provides a summary of the fair value of our derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018:

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Companys financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The management believes that the beta testing has been successfully completed for the Companys three projects namely, Plyzer.com, Plyzer Intelligence and CA.NNABIS. These projects are expected to begin generating revenues during the forthcoming fiscal year. However, revenue that may be expected in the next twelve months may not be sufficient to cover its development and operating costs and this raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Managements plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. While the Company has so far been successful in raising the required capital through debt and equity financing, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will continue to be able to raise the funding required to complete its development work and commercial launch of the portal successfully in future.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2019, the Company has an accumulated deficit amount of approximately $31 million.
NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), Under this guidance, an entity is required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. This guidance offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial instruments." The amendments in this update change how companies measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets. The new expected credit loss model will require companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets (including trade receivables) that are in the scope of the update. The update also made amendments to the current impairment model for held-to-maturity and available-for-sale debt securities and certain guarantees. The guidance will become effective for us on April 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. We are evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, and ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles- Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU No. 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. ASU No. 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test and requires a goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting units carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of its goodwill. The ASU is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). ASU 2018-02 addresses the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate on items within accumulated other comprehensive income or loss due to the enactment of the Tax Act on December 22, 2017. The new standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2018, the FASB issued authoritative guidance regarding Compensation - Stock Compensation, which expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. The standard will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects no material impact on its results of operations or cash flows in the periods after adoption.
In August 2018, the FASB issued authoritative guidance regarding Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The standard will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects no material impact on its results of operations or cash flows in the periods after adoption.
In August 2018, the FASB issued authoritative guidance regarding Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software, which aligns the requirements for a customer to capitalize implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The standard will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance and assessing its overall impact.
The Company evaluates new pronouncements as issued and evaluates the effect of adoption on the Company at the time. The Company has determined that the adoption of recently adopted accounting pronouncements will not have an impact on the financial statements.

Since the convertible loan notes issued during the year have a beneficial conversion feature which is contingent upon future market prices, they did not meet the conditions necessary for equity classification and as a result, the imbedded conversion feature is considered a derivative liability.
The fair value of the derivative relating to the convertible loans notes outstanding at March 31, 2019 was calculated on the issue date and subsequently remeasured on March 31, 2019 using the Black-Scholes valuation technique, using the following assumptions:

As at the year-end the Company had an approximate net tax loss carried forward of $5.24 million (2018: $2.4 million). Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act), which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Act changed the rules on net operating loss carry forwards. The 20-year limitation was eliminated for losses incurred after January 1, 2018, giving the taxpayer the ability to carry forward losses indefinitely. However, net operating loss carry forwards arising after January 1, 2018 will now be limited to 80 percent of taxable income.
There is a three-year limitation on IRS audit since filing of a tax return. The Company has yet to file its tax returns since the fiscal year 2012. Penalties and interest if any charged are included in general and administrative expenses. No penalty or interest was charged or included during the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
The Companys subsidiary in Canada is subject to Canadian Federal and Provincial taxes. There is however no tax liability due to losses. At the year end, the Company had approximately net tax losses carried forward of approximately $43,000 (2018: $8,000), which have been fully offset by valuation allowance of the same amount, as their realization is determined not likely to occur.
