text: The September 27, 2013 termination is related to Debt Derivatives 
  hedging senior notes scheduled to mature in 2014 and 2015. Only the 
  fixed foreign exchange rate was changed for the new Debt Derivatives. 
  All other terms are the same as the terminated Debt Derivatives they 
  on 
  the Debt Derivatives were 
  replaced. 
  September 27, 2013, changes in their fair value were recorded in other 
  comprehensive income and were periodically reclassified to net income 
  to offset foreign exchange gains or losses on the related debt or to 
  modify interest expense to its hedged amount. On the termination date, 
  the balance in the hedging reserve related to these Debt Derivatives was 
  a $10 million loss. $1 million of 
  this related to future periodic 
  exchanges of interest and will be recorded in net income over the 
  remaining life of the related debt securities. The remaining $8 million, 
  net of income taxes of $1 million, will remain in the hedging reserve 
  until such time as the related debt is settled. 
  
  Before  terminated 
  
  the price 
  In 2013, we entered into Equity Derivatives to offset 
  appreciation risk associated with 5.7 million RCI Class B Non-Voting 
  shares 
  stock-based compensation 
  programs for stock options, RSUs and DSUs (see note 24). The Equity 
  Derivatives were entered into at a weighted average price of $50.37 
  with original terms to maturity of one year, extendible for further one 
  year periods with the consent of the hedge counterparties. The Equity 
  Derivatives have not been designated as hedges for accounting 
  purposes. We record changes in their 
  fair value as stock-based 
  compensation expense, offsetting a portion of the impact of changes in 
  the market price of RCI Class B Non-Voting shares contained in the 
  recorded amount of the stock-based compensation liability for stock 
  options, RSUs and DSUs.
