The firm noted: “Sagen MI Canada Inc. designates any and all dividends paid or deemed for Canadian federal, provincial, or territorial income tax purposes to be paid as ‘eligible dividends’, unless indicated otherwise in respect of dividends paid subsequent to this notification, and hereby notifies all recipients of such dividends of this designation.”
