  Communications Partnership and rank equally with all of our other 
  senior unsecured notes and debentures, bank credit and letter of credit 
  facilities. At December 31, 2013, 100% of the foreign exchange risk on 
  our US$ denominated senior notes and debentures was hedged against 
  fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates. See “Managing 
  foreign currency, interest rates and equity compensation” as described

  *Debt Payments and Related Derivative Settlements*
  In June 2013, we repaid and bought the entire outstanding principal 
  amount of our US$350 million ($356 million) 6.25% senior notes. 
  Concurrent with this repayment, the associated Debt Derivatives were 
  also settled at maturity, resulting in an aggregate net payment on 
  settlement of approximately $104 million. 
  The buyer’s interest in these secured trade receivables ranks ahead of 
  our interest. The buyer of our trade receivables has no claim on any of 
  our other assets. The terms of our accounts receivable securitization 
  program are committed by the participating financial 
  institution until 
  expiry on December 31, 2015. 
  
  In September 2013, we paid Cdn$263 million to terminate US$1,075 
  million ($1,360 million) aggregate notional amount of Debt Derivatives 
  and entered into new Debt Derivatives with a notional amount of 
  US$1,075 million ($1,110 million) under the same terms, but at the
