An Certified Public Accounting firm signing the AWSL accountants' report would indicate that an independent professional firm has reviewed the financials and associated disclosures and that they present fairly the financial condition of the Company at the date of the financial statements.
While I appreciate the Mr. Wilkes is a Chartered Accountant, the Canadian equivalent of a CPA, eh?; he is obviously not independent. Simple as that.
Given AWSL's history of dicey financial statements and inadequate disclosures, it would obviously benefit the Company to upgrade the quality of its financial statement presentations going forward.

Sure Gilda, what would a Certified Accountant and Certified Public accountant know about financials.
That is what the CEO of AWSL is. But yes, the side chair critic is so much more qualified. lol
