"holding" must be direct holding

Does a mutual corporation qualify as a mutual holding corporation if it holds shares of the insurance corporation indirectly? After quoting from the mutual holding corporation definition, CRA stated (TaxInterpretations translation):

[T]he legislator contemplated the direct holding and not an indirect holding of shares of the capital stock of the insurance corporation.
