1.1 Date of MD&A

This MD&A was prepared on August 1, 2007.

1.2 Overall Performance

The Company incurred a net loss in the period of $423,428 in fiscal 2007 as opposed to
a net loss of $37,001 for fiscal 2006. The increase in the loss during the period is
reflective of the increased level of activity of the Company during the period, and the
issuance of stock options in the capital of the Company to officers, directors and
consultants. The expenses incurred by the Company are detailed under Operations in
Section 1.15. The Company has seen an increase in operating expenses in every
quarter, in addition to the stock based compensation category. During the fourth quarter
the Company paid consulting fees to professionals in conjunction with project acquisition
and program planning for the Company’s exploration program. The Company has
experienced this increase in expenses at the same time that the Company has raised
further funds for operations, and increased the asset base of the Company. The
Company expects that ongoing expenses will continue at these levels at a minimum, but
more likely will increase as the project activity level of the Company increases. The
Company intends to continue to raise equity funds in order to meet these expenses,
should the Company be unable to raise these funds on an ongoing basis its ability to
continue its business could be affected.

been restated accordingly.

In the fourth quarter of 2007 there is a loss to the Company of $388,060, in part due to
the stock based compensation cost of $268,500 and the consulting fees cost of $91,100.
With the exception of the third quarter of 2007, which reflects the renouncement of flow-
through exploration charges, each quarter has reflected a steadily increasing level of
losses, While the expenses detailed in Section 1.15 have fluctuated as against the
same period in 2006, in general the activity level, the financing transactions, and the
shareholder base of the Company have all increased, all of which affect the operating
costs of the Company. The Company has also obtained a listing on the CNQ, which has
incurred legal fees and regulatory filing fees, and will continue to do so on an ongoing
basis. Additionally, as a subsequent event to the period, the Company obtained the
option on the Burnt Hill Project, and the Company will incur expenses related to this
matter as well.

1.6 Liquidity

Cadillac Ventures Inc. had a cash balance of $1,305,811 as at May 31, 2007 compared

option. Against this positive cash balance and asset base the Company has liabilities
which total $93,050 at May 31, 2007, increased from $91,977 at May 31, 2006. These
are comprised of various professional fees and costs associated with the ongoing
operations of the Company, and are higher during the period due to the timing of various

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Additional Funding Requirements

The Company is reliant upon additional equity financing in order to continue its’ business
and operations, as the Company is in the business of mineral exploration and at present
does not derive any income from any of it’s mineral assets. There is no guarantee that
future sources of funding will be available to the Company. If the Company is not able to
raise additional equity funding in the future the Company will be unable to carry out its’
business in the future.

Commodity Price Volatility

The price of various commodities which the Company is exploring for can fluctuate
drastically, and is beyond the Company’s control. The Company is specifically
concerned with the price of Gold, a commodity which fluctuates daily. While the
Company would benefit from an increase in the value of this metal, the Company could
be adversely affected by a decrease in the value of this metal.

Title to Mineral Properties

Acquisition of title to mineral properties is a very detailed and time-consuming process.


Title to, and the area of, mineral properties may be disputed or impugned. Although the
Company has investigated its title to the mineral properties for which it holds
concessions or mineral leases or licenses, there can be no assurance that the Company
has valid title to such mineral properties or that its title thereto will not be challenged or
impugned. For example, mineral properties sometimes contain claims or transfer
histories that examiners cannot verify; and transfers under foreign law often are
complex. The Company does not carry title insurance with respect to its mineral
properties. A successful claim that the Company does not have title to a mineral property
could cause the Company to lose its rights to mine that property, perhaps without
compensation for its prior expenditures relating to the property.

Mineral Exploration

Mineral exploration involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are
ultimately developed into producing mines. Unusual or unexpected formations, formation
pressures, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, explosions, tailings
impoundment failures, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain adequate
machinery, equipment or labour are some of the risks involved in mineral exploration
and exploitation activities. The Company has relied on and may continue to rely on
consultants and others for mineral exploration and exploitation expertise. Substantial
expenditures are required to establish mineral reserves and resources through drilling, to
develop metallurgical processes to extract the metal from the ore and, in the case of
some properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any
site chosen for mining, or to upgrade existing infrastructure. There can be no assurance
that the funds required to exploit any mineral reserves and resources discovered by the
Company will be obtained on a timely basis or at all. The economics of exploiting mineral
reserves and resources discovered by the Company are affected by many factors, many
outside the control of the Company, including the cost of operations, variations in the
grade of ore mined and metals recovered, price fluctuations in the metal markets, costs
of processing equipment, and other factors such as government regulations, including
regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of
minerals and environmental protection. There can be no assurance that the Company’s
mineral exploration and exploitation activities will be successful.
Country Risk

The Company could be at risk regarding any political developments in the Country in
which it operates. At present the Company is only active in the Province of Quebec,
Canada.

Uninsurable Risks

Mineral exploration activities involve numerous risks, including unexpected or unusual


geological operating conditions, rock bursts, cave-ins, fires, floods, earthquakes and
other environmental occurrences and political and social instability. It is not always
possible to obtain insurance against all such risks and the Company may decide not to
insure against certain risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such
liabilities arise, they could negatively affect the Company’s profitability and financial
position and the value of the common shares of the Company. The Company does not
maintain insurance against environmental risks.

Environmental Regulation and Liability

The Company’s activities are subject to laws and regulations controlling not only mineral
exploration and exploitation activities themselves but also the possible effects of such
activities upon the environment. Environmental legislation may change and make the
mining and processing of ore uneconomic or result in significant environmental or
reclamation costs. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions on
spills, releases or emissions of various substances produced in association with certain
mineral exploitation activities, such as seepage from tailings disposal areas that could
result in environmental pollution. A breach of environmental legislation may result in the
imposition of fines and penalties or the suspension or closure of operations. In addition,
certain types of operations require the submission of environmental impact statements
and approval thereof by government authorities.

Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which may mean stricter standards


and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent
environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of
responsibility for companies and their directors, officers and employees. Permits from a
variety of regulatory authorities are required for many aspects of mineral exploitation
activities, including closure and reclamation. Future environmental legislation could
cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions, liabilities and delays in the
development of the Company’s properties, the extent of which cannot be predicted. In
the context of environmental permits, including the approval of closure and reclamation
plans, the Company must comply with standards and laws and regulations which may
entail costs and delays depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and how
stringently the regulations are implemented by the permitting authority. The Company
does not maintain environmental liability insurance.

Regulations and Permits

The Company’s activities are subject to wide variety of laws and regulations governing
health and worker safety, employment standards, waste disposal, protection of the
environment, protection of historic and archaeological sites, mine development and
protection of endangered and protected species and other matters. The Company is
required to have a wide variety of permits from governmental and regulatory authorities
to carry out its activities. These permits relate to virtually every aspect of the Company’s
exploration and exploitation activities. Changes in these laws and regulations or changes
in their enforcement or interpretation could result in changes in legal requirements or in
the terms of the Company’s permits that could have a significant adverse impact on the
Company’s existing or future operations or projects. Obtaining permits can be a
complex, time-consuming process. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to obtain the necessary permits on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all.
The costs and delays associated with obtaining permits and complying with these
permits and applicable laws and regulations could stop or materially delay or restrict the
Company from continuing or proceeding with existing or future operations or projects.
Any failure to comply with permits and applicable laws and regulations, even if
inadvertent, could result in the interruption or closure of operations or material fines,
penalties or other liabilities.

Potential Dilution

The issue of common shares of the Company upon the exercise of the options and
warrants will dilute the ownership interest of the Company’s current shareholders. The
Company may also issue additional option and warrants or additional common shares
from time to time in the future. If it does so, the ownership interest of the Company’s
then current shareholders could also be diluted.
