As at December 31, 2024, the Company had estimated non-capital losses for Canadian tax purposes of $7,202,000 that expire between 2027 to 2044 which may be carried forward to offset future years’ taxable income.

 

The potential benefit of these carry-forward non-capital losses has not been recognized in these financial statements as it is not considered probable that sufficient future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
