The Corporation manages liquidity needs by monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for long term financial liabilities as well as cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business. The data used for analyzing these cash flows is consistent with that used in the contractual maturity analysis below. Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 30 day outlook. Net cash requirements are compared to available borrowing facilities in order to determine any surplus or shortfall. The Corporation's objective is to maintain cash and marketable securities to meet its liquidity requirements for a minimum 60 day period. This objective was met for the reporting period. Funding for long term liquidity needs are secured by adequate amounts of committed credit facilities. The Corporation's existing cash resources, trade receivables, and cash generated from operations significantly exceed the current cash outflow requirements. (continues)
