Regret the Error

A photo caption accompanying a June 6 article entitled “B. C. Internet firm pays $9M to avoid U. S. gambling charges” incorrectly stated that Dan Parmar is the chief financial officer of ESI Entertainment Systems Inc. and that Mr. Parmar agreed to have ESI pay $9-million in profits in civil forfeiture to the U. S. government. Mr. Parmar resigned from ESI more than 18 months ago and is no longer associated with the company in any way and, accordingly, did not agree to any terms for payment of $9-million in profit nor did he make any admission or acknowledgement of any conduct in relation to ESI. The National Post apologizes to Mr. Parmar for any harm he may have suffered as a result of the publication of the photo caption. Link
