Going Concern [Text Block]	2. Going Concern The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next twelve months. As at September 30, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,865,585 (December 31, 2018-$4,830,948), incurred a net loss of $2,211,900 (2018-$3,141,825) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and had an accumulated deficit of $10,766,212 (December 31, 2018-$8,554,312) and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. On August 28, 2019, Pace Savings & Credit Union Limited (“PACE”) informed the Company via letter that the credit facilities and corporate term loan (the “Debt”) was in default due to the Company’s going concern disclosure in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and as a result of the Company’s failure to respond to an e-mail request from PACE with respect to the Company’s efforts to arrange for a payout. As a result, PACE was not agreeable to continue with the Debt and had requested that the Company’s indebtedness to PACE be paid in full on or before December 31, 2019. PACE requested that their letter be fully executed by September 5, 2019. On September 3, 2019, PACE informed the Company via letter that the interest rates on the Debt be increased effective September 15, 2019, by 0.50%, and each month thereafter by a further 0.50%. On September 5, 2019, management arranged to meet with PACE to discuss their demands and to discuss the Company’s refinancing efforts. Management expressed their concerns over PACE’s actions in describing the details of the default and in increasing the interest rates as per their written communication. Management indicated to PACE that it was agreeable to a partial paydown of the Debt, as management was in discussions with obtaining a first mortgage over the Company’s property which included their organic composting facilities, from a chartered bank. PACE requested management to continue to update PACE on management’s refinancing plans. Management did not fully execute the September 5, 2019 letter from PACE nor any future letters from PACE. The Company “stopped payments” on the September and October instalments on the Debt with PACE. On September 11, 2019, PACE informed the Company that it failed to execute the new terms by September 5, 2019 and that it failed to make the required September payments on two of the three credit facilities that are part of the Debt, which were due on September 2, 2019. PACE also requested payments for the September monthly instalment payment on each of the two credit facilities, not sufficient fund fees and default and administrative fees totaling $1,978 ($2,620 CAD) and the letter of credit fee in the amount of $1,888 ($2,500 CAD). The letter of credit fee was paid and the letter of credit was extended to December 31, 2019. PACE also requested that the Company provide cash collateral to PACE for the letter of credit, in the amount of $209,035 ($276,831 CAD). PACE requested the consent of management to have PACE appoint a financial advisor to inspect and assess the assets and operations of the Company and requested that the letter be executed and returned to PACE by September 12, 2019. In a letter to PACE, management noted that the company’s financial report due by November 14, 2019, will be provided to PACE subsequent to the filing of the financial report and that no further payments will be made to PACE pending resolution of a paydown schedule to facilitate the principal reduction required by PACE on or before December 31, 2019. In a letter from PACE on September 13, 2019, they agreed to renew the letter of credit to December 31, 2019 but still consider the Debt in default. In a letter from PACE on October 9, 2019, PACE confirmed that the letter of credit was renewed to December 31, 2019 and noted further instalments payments returned stop payment, which were due on September 13, 2019 and October 2 and 4, 2019. PACE reiterated that they did not want to continue to be the Company’s banker and that it did not agree to any partial reduction of the Debt and requested that the Company provide a written repayment plan to have the credit facilities permanently retired. On November 1, 2019, the Company responded to PACE's demands to repay all Debt by offering to repay two credit facilities totaling $460,413 ($609,738 CAD) on or before December 31, 2019, in return for a forbearance to December 31, 2020 and repayment of the remaining credit facility and corporate term loan no later than December 31, 2020 or upon the completion of the refinancing with the Canadian chartered bank. On November 12, 2019, PACE responded to the Company accepting the repayment of the two noted credit facilities, but, in addition, required that all the Debt be made current, that the Company provide written reports to PACE on its refinancing with the Canadian chartered bank on a monthly basis commencing December 15, 2019, that all remaining debt be repaid by June 30, 2020 and that PACE be permitted to appoint a financial advisor to inspect the assets and operations of the Company. In addition, the Company’s letter of credit with PACE is expected to be renewed to June 30, 2020. All terms are subject to credit approval. As a result of the PACE default, the advance is also in default (refer to advance, note 12), the obligations under capital lease are also in default (refer to obligations under capital lease, note 14) and the convertible promissory notes are also in default (refer to convertible promissory notes, note 15). Further, on September 25, 2019, the Company’s chief executive officer (the “CEO”), resigned as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and ceased providing his services as CEO. On November 6, 2019, by resolution of the Board, the president of the Company (the “President”), was appointed CEO. These factors cast substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, which is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to further the development of its business, satisfy its obligations to PACE and its other creditors, whose debt is also in default and upon achieving profitable operations. There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.
