TORONTO (CP) - Two Canadians have been charged for lying about the
efficacy of a supposed treatment for cancer they allegedly pitched
worldwide.

Michael Reynolds of Toronto and John Armstrong of Penticton, B.C., are
accused of falsely claiming that their treatment, known as Cell Specific
Cancer Therapy or Zoetron Therapy, could selectively kill cancer cells
without harming healthy cells.
Canada's Competition Bureau alleges the suspects preyed upon cancer
victims and their families, making unsubstantiated claims at seminars
and through advertisements.

The two men ran the now defunct CSCT Inc., based in Kitchener, Ont., and
Penticton.

They also operated outpatient cancer clinics in the Dominican Republic,
Mexico, Switzerland and Spain from August 1996 to February 2003.

They claim to have treated more than 850 people worldwide, charging
nearly $25,000 Cdn.

Reynolds and Armstrong have each been charged with 10 counts of
knowingly or recklessly making representations to the public that were
false or misleading.
They also each face one count of defrauding the public of more than
$5,000
