Participating and voting shares
All holders of Class A Subordinate Voting shares and Class B shares are entitled to receive dividends. While allocated at the discretion of the Board of Directors, the Corporation typically declares cash dividends to be paid out on a quarterly basis.
For the purpose of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any similar provincial and territorial legislation, Transcontinental Inc. designates all dividends (including deemed dividends) paid on the participating and voting shares in the 2007 calendar year and thereafter as "eligible dividends" unless Transcontinental Inc. indicates otherwise.
Dividends paid per participating share (in cents)
(1) Paid a special dividend of $1.00 in addition to regular quarterly dividend of $0.58.
