certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of High Tide Ventures,
     Inc.;

2.   Based on my  knowledge,  this quarterly  report does not contain any untrue
     statement of  material fact or omit to state a material  fact  necessary to
     make the  statements made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such
     statements were  made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
     this quarterly report;

     flows of the  registrant  as of, and for,  the  periods  presented  in this
     quarterly report;

4.   The  registrant's  other   certifying  officers and I are  responsible  for
     establishing  and  maintaining  disclosure  controls  and   procedures  (as
     defined in Exchange  Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the   registrant  and
     have:

     a) designed  such   disclosure   controls   and  procedures  to ensure that
        material  information   relating   to  the   registrant,  including  its
        consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to  us  by  others within those
        entities,  particularly  during  the  period  in  which  this  quarterly
        report is being prepared;

     b) evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure  controls and
        procedures as of September 30, 2005 (the "Evaluation Date");

     c) presented  in   this  quarterly    report  our  conclusions   about  the
        effectiveness  of the disclosure  controls  and  procedures based on our
        evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

5.   The registrant's other certifying  officers and I have disclosed,  based on
     my most  recent  evaluation,  to the  registrant's  auditors  and the audit
     committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the
     equivalent functions):

    (a) all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or  operation  of internal
        controls  which  could  adversely  the  registrant's  ability to record,
        process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for the
        registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and

    (b) any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves  management or other
        employees  who  have a  significant  role in the  registrant's  internal
        control over financial reporting; and

6.   The  registrant's  other certifying  officers and I have  indicated in this
     quarterly report whether or not there were significant  changes in internal
     controls  or in other  factors  that  could significantly  affect  internal
     controls subsequent to  the date  of  our most recent evaluation, including
     any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material
     weaknesses.
