- Painted Pony Petroleum Ltd. (PPY.A)
- Mart Resources Inc. (MMT)

Before rushing out to take a position in any of these companies, please remember that past performance does not guarantee future results. Case in point is Bowood Energy who was part of the list last year, just take a look at the chart….
