Competition Bureau seeks to overturn Rogers-Shaw deal approval in federal court
Telecommunications ‘need more competition,’ Poilievre says after Rogers-Shaw deal clears hurdle
In its response, Rogers says that the bureau has relied on indirect attacks on the Tribunal’s assessment of the evidence that it is presenting as core questions of law.Rogers says the claims of profound legal error and calamitous policy implications are “unhelpful rhetoric,” and that the tribunal’s decision is “quintessentially fact-based and manifestly serves the public interest.”
The hearing at the Federal Court of Appeal in Ottawa is set to run a single day, with a decision date on the appeal not yet set as the extended Jan. 31 closing date of the deal approaches.
