Corus Entertainment Inc. has filed a complaint with Canada's broadcasting regulator alleging Rogers Communications Inc. is"engaging in predatory behaviour" to suppress potential competition and breaching its regulatory requirements.
Rogers' multi-year deal with Warner Bros. Discovery will take effect Jan. 1. It marks a significant blow to Corus, which is set to lose the Canadian rights to key brands such as HGTV, Food Network, Cooking Channel, Magnolia Network and OWN at the end of this year. "They’re trying to force service providers to carry and our customers to pay for channels they no longer want to watch," Schmidt said.On Wednesday, Corus's 900 CHML radio station in Hamilton, Ont., announced it was shuttering amid"the shift of advertising revenues to unregulated foreign platforms."
