Counsel for the Competition Bureau tried to build the case Tuesday that Shaw Communications Inc. is not in as troubled a position as the company has made it seem as the hearing on the $26-billion proposed deal with Rogers Communications Inc. continued.

During cross-examination of Shaw's chief financial officer Trevor English, the competition watchdog pointed to Shaw's fiscal 2020 financials, noting free cash flow of approximately $750 million and capital expenditures of approximately $1.1 billion.

On Monday evening, English told the Competition Tribunal that Shaw does not see a viable path forward as a standalone company. English said even without the divestiture of Shaw-owned wireless carrier Freedom, the deal is good for consumers.
