As widely reported in other forums, due to poor present and future projected R.O.I.'s; the following B.C.E. properties are up for sale or merger: ExpressVu, CTV, Teleglobe; Emergis and The Globe & Mail. Despite all these bad decisions by BCE CEO Jean Monty, he had no problem taking home $28M+ in compensation from salary, bonus + stock options. Nice work if you can get it - eh Jean - now what to you say to all the investors who have lost money or to all the employees who will be downsized soon?

WoW drive a company into the ground & still get $28 mill? I can do that. I'm sending my resume now!

He's not the only one. JR Shaw of Shaw Communications/Star Choice took the company from $133 million profit last year to $147 million loss this year for a net difference of $280 million and for that he received a $4.6 million dollar bonus.

pampam,

Can you point me in the direction of ExpressVu being up for sale ? I look at National Post and Financial Post and came up empty on it.


Thanks
