IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 were applied retrospectively and comparative information was restated.

First quarter 2023 financial results
Net income of $101-million was $4-million lower than the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to lower insurance service result, partially offset by higher investment income.
Preferred dividends
