Earnings Per Share, Basic and Diluted [Abstract] |
Basic and diluted net earnings per share | Basic and diluted net earnings per share Basic and diluted earnings per share have been calculated on the basis of net earnings attributable to the common shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of common shares and bonus deferral restricted share units outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares, additional shares issued subsequent to quarter-end under the dividend reinvestment plan, PSUs, RSUs and DSUs outstanding during the period and, if dilutive, potential incremental common shares related to the convertible debentures or resulting from the application of the treasury stock method to outstanding share options and Green Equity Units (note 7(a)). The reconciliation of the net earnings and the weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:
