This Amendment No. 17 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein. Item 1. Security and Issuer. Unchanged from the initial Statement on Schedule 13D dated October 22, 1997. Item 2. Identity and Background. Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended described in paragraph (a) below and Schedule I hereto. Paragraphs (b) and (c) are repeated as of the date of the filing of this Amendment 17. (a) Schedule I to the Original Schedule 13D is amended as set forth on Schedule I. References herein to the "Schedule I Persons" means the Schedule I Persons as defined in the Original Schedule 13D, as such roster is amended hereby. (b) During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of their Schedule I Persons have been convicted in a criminal proceeding. (c) During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of their Schedule I Persons have been a party to any civil proceeding as a result of which it has been subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. The Original Schedule 13D is amended by inserting the following at the end of Item 3: Claridge paid its 50% of the $8,968,039.92 consideration ($4,484,019.96) from its working capital. Neither Esarbee nor The Charles Bronfman Trust engaged in any transactions involving the Issuer's Ordinary Shares. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended and restated as follows: The securities reported are being held by the Reporting Persons for investment purposes. The purpose of the Reporting Persons for Claridge in the transactions reported in this Amendment 17 is to further intra-group planning, and to acquire collateral to be pledged in connection with certain lending arrangements with a commercial bank. The purpose of Claridge's option grant to 87215 Canada Ltd. ("87215") was also to further intra-group planning. CUSIP No.: 500 507 108 Schedule 13D Page 6 of 13 Pages Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 17 and in the attached Exhibits, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Each of the Reporting Persons will, from time to time, review or reconsider its position with respect to the Issuer and may formulate plans or proposals with respect to any of such matters. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a) The first three paragraphs of clause (a) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D are amended and restated in the paragraphs that follow: Claridge may be deemed to beneficially own 2,375,835 Ordinary Shares. With respect to Claridge, this represents 15.1% of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (based on 15,741,160 Ordinary Shares represented to be outstanding December 31, 2003), less Ordinary Shares held by the Company and a subsidiary (which do not have voting rights). CBT may also be deemed to beneficially own 2,375,835 Ordinary Shares, because it holds 99% of the issued and outstanding ownership interests of Claridge. This represents 15.1% of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (based on 15,741,160 Ordinary Shares, less Ordinary Shares held by the Company and a subsidiary (which do not have voting rights). CBT, by virtue of its ownership interests in Claridge and ability to elect managers of Claridge, may be deemed to have shared voting rights and shared rights to dispose of these Ordinary Shares. Esarbee may be deemed to beneficially own 2,271,167 Ordinary Shares. With respect to Esarbee, this represents 14.43% of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (based on 15,741,160 Ordinary Shares outstanding, less Ordinary Shares held by the Company (which do not have voting rights). (b) Clause (b) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows: Each of the Reporting Persons has the sole voting and dispositive rights with respect to the Ordinary Shares which it has already acquired, except as described in the next sentence. While Claridge has sole voting rights with respect to its 2,375,835 Ordinary Shares, disposition of 104,669 of the Ordinary Shares will necessarily involve 87215 by virtue of Claridge's option grant to 87215. CBT has an indirect beneficial ownership interest in the 2,375,835 Ordinary Shares described above by virtue of its 99% interest in Claridge. (c) Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 17, during the last sixty days there have been no transactions in the Ordinary Shares effected by the Reporting Persons, nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of their Schedule I Persons. (d) None. (e) Not applicable. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The purchase price was $8,968,039.92, which will be paid in equal portions by Claridge and CR.BT. Under the terms of the option grant by Claridge to 87215, Claridge granted 87215 an option to 104,669 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (together with any securities distributed prior the exercise date as dividends or other distribution to holders of the Ordinary Shares) for an exercise price equal to (a) $12,500,000, less (b) all extraordinary cash dividends paid, if any, upon 104,669 Ordinary Shares prior to the exercise date.
