| Use of Estimates [Policy Text Block] |
| |
a) |
Use of Estimates
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. As the precise determination of assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, depends on future events, the preparation of financial statements for any period necessarily involves the use of estimates. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates. Significant estimates include accruals, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, estimates for calculation of stock based compensation, estimating the useful life of its plant and equipment and accounting for conversion features on convertible debt transactions.
|
|
| Income Taxes [Policy Text Block] |
| |
b) |
Income Taxes
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10- 25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740- 10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets likely. The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company is subject to U.S federal jurisdiction income tax examinations for the tax years 2008 through 2013. In addition, the Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2008 through 2013.
|
|
| Revenue Recognition [Policy Text Block] |
| |
c) |
Revenue Recognition
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company’s revenue recognition policies follow common practice in the manufacturing industry. The Company records revenue when it is realized, or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue to be realized, or realizable and earned, when the following revenue recognition requirements are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the products or services have been accepted by the customer via delivery or installation acceptance; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is probable. For product sales, the Company determines that the earnings process is complete when title, risk of loss and the right to use product has transferred to the customer.
|
|
| Loss Per Share [Policy Text Block] |
| |
d) |
Loss Per Share
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive) related to stock options and warrants for each year. There were no common equivalent shares outstanding at November 30, 2014 and 2013 that have been included in dilutive loss per share calculation as the effects would have been anti-dilutive. At November 30, 2014, there were
3,360,000
options and
4,794,545
warrants outstanding, which were convertible into equal number of common shares of the Company. At November 30, 2013, there were
1,510,000
options and
5,542,645
warrants outstanding, which were convertible into equal number of common shares of the Company.
|
|
| Cash and cash equivalents [Policy Text Block] |
| |
e) |
Cash and cash equivalents
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and any other highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. The carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the short maturity of those instruments.
|
|
| Research and Product Development [Policy Text Block] |
| |
f) |
Research and Product Development
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Research and Product Development costs, other than capital expenditures but including acquired research and product development costs, are charged against income in the period incurred.
|
|
| Stock-Based Compensation [Policy Text Block] |
| |
g) |
Stock-Based Compensation
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
All awards granted to employees and non-employees after November 30, 2005 are valued at fair value by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized on a straight line basis over the service periods of each award. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees using the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services. As of November 30, 2014 there was $nil
of unrecognized expense related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements granted. The total stock-based compensation expense relating to all employees and non employees for the years ended November 30, 2014 and 2013 was $751,610
and $Nil
respectively.
|
|
| Foreign Currency [Policy Text Block] |
| |
h) |
Foreign Currency
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The parent Company maintains its books and records in U.S. dollars which is its functional and reporting currency.The Company’s operating subsidiary is a foreign private company and maintains its books and records in Canadian dollars (the functional currency). The subsidiary’s financial statements are converted to US dollars for consolidation purposes. The translation method used is the current rate method, where the functional currency is the foreign currency. Under the current rate method all assets and liabilities are translated at the current rate, stockholders’ equity accounts are translated at historical rates and revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the year.
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Due to the fact that items in the financial statements are being translated at different rates according to their nature, a translation adjustment is created. This translation adjustment has been included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).
|
|
| Comprehensive loss [Policy Text Block] |
| |
i) |
Comprehensive loss
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non- owner sources. Examples of items to be included in comprehensive loss, which are excluded from net loss, include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.
|
|
| Financial Instruments [Policy Text Block] |
| |
j) |
Financial Instruments
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company follows ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820-10), which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tier fair value hierarchy has been established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
|
•
Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Assets that are generally included in this category are cash and cash equivalents comprised of money market funds, restricted cash and short-term investments.
•
Level 2—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
•
Level 3—Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
| |
|
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of November 30, 2014 and 2013 are classified below based on the three fair value hierarchy tiers described above:

Foreign exchange risk:
The Company’s subsidiary conducts its operating activities in Canadian dollars. The Company is therefore subject to gains or losses due to fluctuations in Canadian currency relative to the US dollar.
Liquidity risk
:
The Company’s exposure to liquidity risk is dependent on the ability to raise funds to meet commitments and to sustain operations. The company controls its liquidity risk by managing working capital and cash flows.
|
| Impairment of Long-lived Assets [Policy Text Block] |
| |
k) |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. If there are indications of impairment, the Company uses future undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. In the event such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded asset values, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value.
|
|
| Concentration of Credit Risk [Policy Text Block] |

l) |
Concentration of Credit Risk
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company does not have significant off-balance sheet risk or credit concentration.
|
|
| Convertible Debt Instruments [Policy Text Block] |
| |
m) |
Convertible debt instruments
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20
Debt with Conversion and Other Options
. The Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. The Company amortizes the respective debt discount over the term of the notes, using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. The Company records, when necessary, induced conversion expense, at the time of conversion for the difference between the reduced conversion price per share and the original conversion price per share.

|
| Intellectual Property [Policy Text Block] |
Four patent applications, one for the electrical mechanism and the other three for the mechanical mechanism of the WEP40, have been filed by the Company with the U.S. Patent Office. The Company has been issued four patents.
(a) Less-lethal Projectile: This issued patent relates to the Company’s distinctive collapsible ammunition head technology that absorbs kinetic energy of the projectile upon impact. The Corporation’s collapsible head is used in both the BIP and the WEP.
(b) Electronic Circuitry for Incapacitating a Living Target: This issued patent relates to the electronic circuitry incapacitation system which forms part of the WEP. The patent describes an electronic circuit which provides an electrical incapacitation current to a living target.
(c) Less-lethal Wireless Stun Projectile System for Immobilizing a Target by Neuro-Muscular Disruption: This issued patent describes the process by which the WEP operates with its attachment system to halt a target through a neuro-muscular-disruption system.
(d) Autonomous Operation of a Less-lethal Projectile: This pending patent describes a motion sensing system within the WEP. The sensor will monitor movement of the target and enable the electrical output until the target is subdued. The electrical pulse is programmed for an exact time-frame to specifications of the user.
The Company’s policy is to write off patent costs as they are incurred.

In June 2014, the FASB issued
ASU 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination
of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements”
(“ASU 2014-10”), which eliminates the distinction of a development stage entity and certain related disclosure requirements, including the elimination of inception-to-date information on the statements of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 are effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods; however early adoption is permitted. The Company evaluated and adopted ASU 2014-10 early for the current period presented.

In August 2012, the FASB issued
ASU 2012-03, Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC
Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No.
114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to
FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update)
(“ASU 2012-0 3”). This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

|
In April 2014, the FASB issued
ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity
(“ASU 2014-08”)
,
which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. Additionally, ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The new standard is effective for the Company on December 1, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-08 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

|
|
| |
|
In May 2014, the FASB issued
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
(“ASU 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on December 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued
ASU 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
(“ASU 2014-15”), which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if “conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.” ASU 2014-15 applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
On January 9, 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement- Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. The ASU
eliminates the concept of extraordinary items and the uncertainty in determining when an item is
both
unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence
. Presently, an event or transaction is presumed to be ordinary activity unless evidence supports the transaction as unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. If an event or transaction is determined to be unusual and infrequent, it is deemed to be extraordinary, and is required to be segregated from the results of ordinary operations on the face of the income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations, along with other financial statement disclosures. ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of extraordinary items from the income statement presentation. Eliminating this concept removes the uncertainty in determining when a transaction is both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. However, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature OR occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. This ASU aligns US GAAP with IAS 1, which prohibits presentation and disclosure of extraordinary items.
This ASU is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
