As at January 2, 2022, the Company has tax credits, capital and non-capital loss carryforwards, and other deductible temporary differences available to reduce future taxable income for tax purposes representing a tax benefit of approximately $102.7 million, for which no deferred tax asset has been recognized (January 3, 2021 - $100.4 million), because the criteria for recognition of the tax asset was not met. The tax credits and capital and non-capital loss carryforwards expire between 2027 and 2041. The recognized deferred tax asset related to loss carryforwards is supported by projections of future profitability of the Company. The Company has not recognized a deferred income tax liability for the undistributed profits of subsidiaries operating in foreign jurisdictions, as the Company currently has no intention to repatriate these profits. If expectations or intentions change in the future, the Company may be subject to an additional tax liability upon distribution of these earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise. As at January 2, 2022, a deferred income tax liability of approximately $61 million would result from the recognition of the taxable temporary differences of approximately $560 million.
