  **Vertical Integration**
  The CRTC considers our Cable business to be vertically integrated 
  because we own or control both programming and distribution services. 
  It sets out the rules for vertically integrated companies in the broadcast 
  sector in its Broadcasting Regulatory Policy CRTC 2011-601. The policy: 
  television programs 
  (cid:129) Does not allow companies to make their 
  Internet subscribers. Any program 
  exclusive to their mobile or 
  broadcast on television, 
  including hockey games and other live 
  events, must be made available to competitors under fair and 
  reasonable terms. 
  
  (cid:129) Allows companies to offer exclusive programming to their Internet or 
  mobile customers provided it is produced specifically for an Internet 
  portal or a mobile device. 
  
  (cid:129) Adopts a code of conduct to prevent anti-competitive behaviour and 
  ensure all distributors, broadcasters and online programming services 
  negotiate in good faith. To protect Canadians from losing availability 
  of a television service during negotiations, broadcasters must 
  continue to provide the service in question and distributors must 
  continue to offer it to their subscribers.
