text: The outcome of all the proceedings and claims against us, including the 
  matters described above, is subject to future resolution that includes the 
  uncertainties of litigation. Based on information currently known to us, 
  we believe that it is not probable that the ultimate resolution of any of 
  these proceedings and claims, 
  individually or in total, will have a 
  material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results 
  of operations. If it becomes probable that we are liable, we will record a 
  provision in the period the change in probability occurs and it would be 
  material to our consolidated financial position and results of operations. 
  
  We appealed the 2007 certification decision, however, it was dismissed 
  by the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal and leave to appeal to the 
  Supreme Court of Canada was denied. 
  
  In August 2009, counsel for the plaintiffs began a second proceeding 
  under the*Class Actions Act*(Saskatchewan) asserting the same claims 
  as the original proceeding. If successful, this second class action would 
  be an “opt-out” class proceeding. This second proceeding was ordered 
  conditionally stayed in 2009 on the basis that it was an abuse of 
  process.
