Canada sets out conditions for Rogers – Shaw merger

By Aiste Kryzanovske October 26, 2022

A multibillion-dollar merger between Shaw Communications and Rogers Communications Inc., two of the biggest telecommunications businesses in Canada, was officially rejected by the federal industry minister. “Today, I officially denied that request. My decision formally closes that chapter of the original proposed transaction,” said Canadian Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne.

Videotron would have to agree to maintain the…
