                                AUDITORS' REPORT
 
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
STEEN CONTRACTORS LIMITED
 
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Steen
Contractors Limited as at December 31, 1994 and the related consolidated
statements of retained earnings, operations and cash flow for the year then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
 
     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, the 1994 financial statements referred to above, present
fairly, in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the
company as at December 31, 1994 and the consolidated results of its operations
and its cash flow for the year then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

     c)   Rent expense during the year amounted to $288,986; 1993 -- $318,401.
 
NOTE 15 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION:
 
     a)   In addition to the company's share of the earnings of the
          unincorporated joint venture, included in contract revenue for the
          current year is approximately $390,000 (1993 -- $425,000) of charges
          to the joint venture for labour and costs provided. As at
          December 31, 1994, $21,043 (1993 -- $35,329) was due from the joint
          venture as a result of these charges and is subject to normal trade
          terms. The amount is included in accounts receivable.
 
     b)   The company pays rent to affiliated companies for premises. During

          on demand and is non-interest bearing.
 
NOTE 16 -- CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:
 
     Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited
due to the large number of customers comprising the company's customer base and
the geographic dispersion of customers amongst Ontario, Quebec and the Maritime
provinces of Canada. The company does not require collateral from its customers.
As at December 31, 1994 and 1993, the company had no significant concentrations
of credit risk.
