GCG Guardian Capital Group Ltd

Guardian Capital Group Limited ("Guardian")(TSX: GCG)(TSX: GCG.A) announced today that it intends to purchase by means of a Normal Course Issuer Bid, during the period from November 16, 2010 to November 15, 2011, up to 107,000 or 2% of its outstanding Common Shares, entitled to one vote per share, and up to 2,307,443 or 10% of its Public Float of non-voting Class A Shares. These shares will be purchased at market prices, on the Toronto Stock Exchange. There were 5,353,198 Common Shares and 28,940,519 Class A Shares outstanding at November 8, 2010. Guardian intends to purchase the shares for cancellation because it believes that, from time to time, the shares are undervalued at prevailing market prices, based on Guardian's earnings and prospects and accordingly, the directors are of the opinion that the purchase of shares is an appropriate use of corporate funds to increase shareholder value.

In the last 12 months under its previous Normal Course Issuer Bid, in effect during the period from November 16, 2009 to November 15, 2010, Guardian purchased for cancellation no Common Shares and 1,677,600 Class A Shares, at an average price of $7.74 per Class A Share. All of these shares were purchased prior to October 31, 2010.

The average daily trading volume for Guardian's shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange during the period of May 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010, excluding purchases made by Guardian under its previous Normal Course Issuer Bid during the same period, was as follows: Common Shares - 115 shares; and Class A Shares - 21,745 shares. Except as otherwise permitted by the Toronto Stock Exchange, the maximum aggregate daily purchase under the bid will be 1,000 Common Shares and 5,436 Class A Shares.

Guardian has filed a Notice of Intention in this regard, with the Toronto Stock Exchange, which Notice has been accepted by the Exchange.
