Prospectus Supplement No. 3 dated July 1, 2004 to Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus dated April 14, 2004, as previously supplemented on May 18, 2004 and June 1, 2004

2.75% CONVERTIBLE SENIOR DEBENTURES DUE 2023

Interest payable on April 15 and October 15

Pursuant to the multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we filed a short form base shelf prospectus (the “prospectus”), dated April 14, 2004, with the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”), and a registration statement on Form F-10 containing the prospectus with the SEC. The prospectus may be used by the selling securityholders named therein in connection with resales of our 2.75% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2023 (the “debentures”) and the common shares issuable upon the conversion of the debentures (the “underlying shares”).

The holders of the debentures and the underlying shares (together, the “registrable securities”) are entitled to the benefits of a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2003, among us and Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., and Morgan Stanley & Co., Incorporated, as representatives of the initial purchasers of the debentures. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, any holder of registrable securities wishing to sell registrable securities pursuant to the prospectus must deliver a Notice and Questionnaire to us (each holder who has delivered a Notice and Questionnaire to us is referred to herein as an “electing holder”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to file with the BCSC and the SEC the documents required to include in the prospectus the registrable securities held by electing holders.

We are filing this prospectus supplement to include in the prospectus the registrable securities of electing holders who have signed, completed and delivered to us a Notice and Questionnaire since June 1, 2004.
