You should rely only on the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus
supplement and the prospectus. We have not, and the underwriters have not, authorized any other person

specified or the context otherwise requires, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, and all financial
information included and incorporated by reference in the prospectus and this prospectus supplement is
determined using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"). "U.S. GAAP" means
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. For a discussion of the principal differences

·

juries;

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION
We publish our consolidated financial statements in Canadian dollars. In this prospectus supplement, unless
otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars and
references to "dollars" or "$" are to Canadian dollars and references to "US$" are to United States dollars.
The following table sets forth the Canada/U.S. exchange rates on the last day of the periods indicated as well
as the high, low and average rates for such periods. The high, low and average exchange rates for each period
were identified or calculated from spot rates in effect on each trading day during the relevant year. The exchange
rates shown are expressed as the number of U.S. dollars required to purchase one Canadian dollar. These
exchange rates are based on those published on the Bank of Canada's website as being in effect at approximately
noon on each trading day (the "Bank of Canada noon rate"). On May 9, 2005, the Bank of Canada noon rate was
US$0.8079 equals $1.00.
