No it's not gone away - and we have to watch the situation despite the Opposition's break in dealing with the issues.
So that was 15 million the un-named consortium "needs" right?
MTS Allstream
Rogers
Persona
Together known as ????? - continues to claim the absolute need for taxpayers cash in order for the project to move forward. I can't wait for John Noseworthy's take on the financial information.
Anyway - the purpose of this post is to make an announcement - one which Mr. Rogers and his neighbourhood is quite proud of.
Here's the quote from the Globe and Mail:
Cable king Ted Rogers reached a milestone this month in his battle against rival BCE Inc. when his company became the largest communications service provider in Canada by market value.
The combined market value of Rogers Communications Inc. class A and class B shares at the close of trading Monday on the Toronto Stock Exchange was $24.09-billion, Bloomberg data shows BCE, which is still the biggest communications company when it comes to customers and revenue, finished the day with a market cap of $23.67-billion.
Now if that's not the proof to "con"vince taxpayers of Newfoundland and Labrador that they need our 15 million dollars - I don't know what else they could say.
Trevor - any chance you could put some duct-tape over that hole in our treasury barrel?
