March 3, 2008 The Annual PDAC Convention
| Speaker: | Rik Parkhill Interim Co-CEO TSX Group Inc. |

TSX Group Inc. Interim Co-CEO Rik Parkhill says it is clear that the issue of mutual recognition is gaining acceptance in the U.S. but he told an audience at PDAC today in Toronto that even further work is required to make Canada more competitive on a global scale.
"The broader policy environment needs work. As a destination for foreign capital, we are not as attractive as we could be and should be to global markets," said Mr. Parkhill. "He pointed out examples of how the 2006 income trust decision hurt issuers plus that there was still some confusion over interest-deduction taxation. “The fuzziness that surrounded the question of interest-deduction taxation as it related to takeovers by Canadian companies of foreign firms certainly spooked some key players in our market at a critical time. But the bigger problem is a policy approach that views the Canadian market and especially Canadian capital markets as an island unto itself."

"Simply put, the purpose of free trade is to lower costs through the efficiencies that are realized when markets grow in size and, through reduction and elimination of impediments to the flow of goods and services. We believe it is in the best interests of all players – most importantly, companies that are listed or considering listing, and investors of all types – to remove barriers to the ready flow of capital in North America. And we intend to work collaboratively with all interested parties – governments, investor groups, and indeed, even our competitors, to achieve these improvements to the investment climate on both sides of the border."
