This is a standard forward-looking statements legend (also referred to as a safe harbour legend). It may be used in connection with the preparation of a reporting issuer's disclosure documents, press releases or other documents and with reference to the statutory defence available under the Ontario Securities Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. S.5, against civil liability for misrepresentations in forward-looking information. It may also be used for disclosures in connection with a securities offering (other than an IPO) or for disclosures in the ordinary course of business. This legend includes several examples of forward-looking statements and important factors to be included in the meaningful cautionary language required by the safe harbour to aid drafters. This Standard Document has integrated notes with important explanations and drafting tips.
