The Registration Statement relates to the registration of an additional 5,575,000 common shares, without par value (the “Common Shares”) in the capital of the Corporation (the “Option Shares”) available for issuance pursuant to the amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the Corporation’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”) approved by the Corporation’s shareholders at the annual general meeting held on June 2, 2023.

D. Reliance
For the purposes of expressing the opinions set forth herein, in connection with certain factual matters pertaining to this opinion, we have relied exclusively and without independent investigation upon the Officer's Certificate.

F. Qualifications
Whenever our opinion refers to securities of the Corporation, whether issued or to be issued, as being "fully-paid and non-assessable", such phrase means that the holders of such securities will not, after the issuance to them of such securities, be liable to pay further amounts to the Corporation in respect of the issue price payable for such securities, and no opinion is expressed as to the adequacy of any consideration received by the Corporation therefor.
For greater certainty, a specific assumption, limitation or qualification in this opinion is not to be interpreted to restrict the generality of any other assumption, limitation or qualification expressed in general terms in this opinion that includes the subject matter of the specific assumption, limitation or qualification.
