We are going to have 5 or 6 telecom companies advertising in a big, big way in Canada. Advertising agencies are hiring. Trading at nice but cheap valuation. Balance sheet is strong.

Won’t bid for assets of Can West. They paid off debt; car companies are spending more on advertising. Looks cheap.

Did well during the recession. Stable recurring revenues from pay-TV with HBO, a specialty channel, over 80 AM/FM radio stations and approximately 8000 outdoor billboards. Thinks a gradual recovery of advertising will happen this year.

It’s a multi voting class share so that foreigners can’t majority stake in a media. It’s on his radar screen and if they buy CanWest specialty channels, how much would they pay.

Under known and under followed. Have nice exposure to some specialty channel programming. A nice safe media company. Solid management. Hurt with poorer advertising revenues.

Some of the media stocks have come down a long way recently. This one has been a perennially strong stock and has always traded a little bit more expensively. Used to trade at 10X operating cash flow is now trading at 7 or 8. Still own the pay-TV and specialty channels. They bought standard broadcasting radio.

Between this and Corus, this has been the better operator. Pay TV has been a good thing, digital is a driver, radio has really moved up and advertising (particularily outdoor) has been good, so they have been firing on all cylinders. Current price is OK for a long term hold.
