4.Change in Presentation Currency

 

Effective September 1, 2020, the Company changed its presentation currency to US dollars from CAD dollars. The Company believes that the change in presentation currency will provide shareholders with a better reflection of the Company’s business activities and enhance the comparability of the Company’s financial information to peers. The change in presentation currency represents a voluntary change in accounting policy, which is accounted for retrospectively. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented have been translated into the new presentation currency in accordance with IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of comprehensive loss and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been translated into the presentation currency using the average exchange rates prevailing during each reporting period. In the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of financial position, all assets and liabilities have been translated using the period end exchange rates, and all resulting exchange differences have been recognized in accumulated deficit. Asset and liability amounts previously reported in Canadian dollars have been translated into US dollars as at February 28, 2021, using the period end exchange rates of 1.2733 CAD/USD, and shareholders’ equity balances have been translated using historical rates in effect on the date of the transactions.

 

The change in presentation currency resulted in the following impact on the February 28, 2021 unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position:
