Extension:
Schedule 14D-1F, SEC File No. 270-338, OMB Control No. 3235-0376.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    Schedule 14D-1F (17 CFR 240.14d-102) is a form that may be used by 
any person (the ``bidder'') making a cash tender or exchange offer for 
securities of any issuer (the ``target'') incorporated or organized 
under the laws of Canada or any Canadian province or territory that is 
a foreign private issuer, where less than 40% of the outstanding class 
of the target's securities that is the subject of the offer is held by 
U.S. holders. Schedule 14D-1F is designed to facilitate cross-border 
transactions in the securities of Canadian issuers. The information 
required to be filed with the Commission provides security holders with 
material information regarding the bidder as well as the transaction so 
that they may make informed investment decisions. The information 
provided is mandatory and all information is made available to the 
public upon request. Schedule 14D-1F takes approximately 2 hours per 
response to prepare and is filed by approximately 2 respondents 
annually for a total reporting burden of 4 hours (2 hours per response 
x 2 responses).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov.

Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,

Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to:
