Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | 20. Net earnings (loss) per common share The earnings per share calculation cannot be anti-dilutive, therefore diluted shares is not used in the denominator when the numerator is in a loss position. Diluted EPS is calculated using the “if-converted” method of calculating earnings per share in relation to the Convertible Notes, which were issued on May 19, 2020. As such, the interest (net of income tax) on the Convertible Notes is added to the numerator and the additional shares issuable on conversion of the Convertible Notes are added to the denominator of the earnings per share calculation to determine if an assumed conversion is more dilutive than no assumption of conversion. The “if-converted” method is used if the impact of the assumed conversion is dilutive. The “if-converted” method is anti-dilutive for the year ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021. The following table reconciles the basic and diluted common shares outstanding:
