NEWS RELEASE
SHAW TO PURSUE ALL LEGAL REMEDIES AGAINST
CAMPBELL RIVER TV
CALGARY, AB (November 21, 2005) Shaw Communications announced today that it would pursue
all legal remedies against Campbell River TV to stop the fraudulent practice of directly or
indirectly acquiring Digital Cable Terminals from designated Shaw retail outlets. Shaw has learned
that Campbell River TV is once again directing its customers to purchase Digital Cable Terminals
from retail outlets in Courtney knowing that these devices are made available exclusively for Shaw
customers.
We provide Digital Cable Terminals to our customers at a subsidized price. They are intended
solely for the use and benefit of our customers. What Campbell River is doing is wrong and they
know it. As this is the third such fraudulent act against Shaw we will pursue all avenues to
ensure this practice comes to an end, said Peter Bissonnette, President of Shaw Communications
Inc.
Campbell River TV has previously pleaded guilty to Theft of Telecommunication Services from Star
Choice (a division of Shaw Communications).
Shaw Communications Inc. is a diversified Canadian communications company whose core business
is providing broadband cable television, High-Speed Internet, Digital Phone, telecommunications
services (through Big Pipe Inc.) and satellite direct-to-home services (through Star Choice
Communications Inc.) to approximately 3.0 million customers. Shaw is traded on the Toronto and New
York stock exchanges and is included in the S&P/TSX 60 index (Symbol: TSX - SJR.NV.B, NYSE - SJR).
