Turdo's govt Will approve this deal imho, I'm 95% sure it goes thru and I'll tell you why. the 1 thing in the wording from rogers convinces me of this. 1st off I think they've already consulted with the turdo people, and the wording that convinces me of this is the fact that they made a big deal about saying they would  ensure they bring high speed internet to all the ...more
