AUDITORS’ REPORT<br />
To the Members of<br />
The <strong>International</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Sustainable</strong> Development<br />
We have audited the consolidated statement of financial position of the <strong>International</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Sustainable</strong> Development as at March 31, <strong>2007</strong> and the<br />
consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows <strong>for</strong> the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of<br />
the <strong>Institute</strong>’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.<br />
We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and per<strong>for</strong>m an<br />
audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,<br />
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and<br />
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.<br />
In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the <strong>Institute</strong> as at March 31,<br />
<strong>2007</strong> and the results of its operations and its cash flows <strong>for</strong> the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.<br />
