Exhibit 31.1
CERTIFICATION OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

I, G. Gordon Greenwood, certify that:

      1.    I have  reviewed  this  annual  report on Form  10-KSB  of  Weststar
            Financial Services Corporation (the "small business issuer");

      2.    Based on my  knowledge,  this  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 report;

      3.    Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
            information included in this report,  fairly present in all material
            respects the financial  condition,  results of  operations  and cash
            flows of the small  business  issuer  as of,  and for,  the  periods
            presented in this report;

      4.    The small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer  and I are
            responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
            procedures  (as defined in Exchange Act 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for
            the small business issuer and have:

                  a.    Designated such disclosure  controls and procedures,  or
                        caused such  disclosure  controls and  procedures  to be
                        designed  under  our  supervision,  to  ensure  that all
                        material  information  relating  to the  small  business
                        issuer including its consolidated subsidiaries,  is made
                        known   to  us  by   others   within   those   entities,
                        particularly  during  the period  which  this  report is
                        being prepared;

                  b.    Evaluated  the   effectiveness  of  the  small  business
                        issuer's   disclosure   controls  and   procedures   and
                        presented  in  this  report  our  conclusion  about  the
                        effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures
                        as of the end of the period covered by this report based
                        on such evaluation; and

                  c.    Disclosed  in  this  report  any  change  in  the  small
                        business   issuer's   internal  control  over  financial
                        reporting  that  occurred   during  the  small  business
                        issuer's  fourth  fiscal  quarter  that  has  materially
                        affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
                        the  small  business   issuer's  internal  control  over
                        financial reporting; and

      5.    The small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer and I have
            disclosed, based upon our most recent evaluation of internal control
            over financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditor and
            the  audit  committee  of  the  small  business  issuer's  board  of
            directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

                  a.    All significant  deficiencies and material weaknesses in
                        the  design  or  operation  of  internal   control  over
                        financial  reporting  which  are  reasonably  likely  to
                        adversely affect the small business  issuer's ability to
                        record,   process,   summarize   and  report   financial
                        information; and

                  b.    Any  fraud,  whether  or  not  material,  that  involves
                        management  or other  employees  who have a  significant
                        role in the small  business  issuer's  internal  control
                        over financial reporting.
