I would appreciate your considering that.

Successful acquisitions obviously require job cuts and generally don't involve job increases. Rogers told the Competition Tribunal that it will realize efficiencies through job cuts in most areas at both companies. In speaking with your company insiders, I'm told that Rogers will cut 4,000 to 5,000 jobs in the combined entity, not the network and temporary jobs that you mentioned earlier. Are you going to cut 4,000 or more jobs?
