The net foreign exchange gain relates to the translation into Canadian dollars of the Corporation’s previous US dollar-denominated long-term other asset, representing the book value of the Corporation’s expropriated investment in Belize Electricity, up to the date of settlement of expropriation matters in August 2015 (Note 9). As a result of the settlement, the Corporation recognized an approximate $9 million loss in 2015. Unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses associated with the Corporation’s 33% equity investment in Belize Electricity are recognized on the balance sheet in accumulated other comprehensive income.
