Date:12/31/2007

NEW YORK, Dec. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- via COMTEX -- As discussed by e-Smart Technologies, Inc. (Pink Sheets: ESMT); ("e-Smart" or the Company") during its December 27, 2007 Telephonic Shareholder Conference Call, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has initiated an inquiry and has issued subpoenas to the Company for documents including those relating to certain loans made to e-Smart from its parent company IVI Smart Technologies Inc., ("IVI") and Intermarket Ventures, Inc.
