Media are invited to listen to a live webcast of the conference, which will bring together many of Canada's largest media and telecom players as they weigh the future direction of the industry in an environment where government policy favours more competition in the wireless space.

"The focus of the 14th Annual BMO Media and Telecom Conference will undoubtedly be the domestic wireless landscape and the upcoming spectrum auctions," said BMO Capital Markets Equity Research analyst Tim Casey, who will moderate the conference. "Virtually all of the major Canadian telecom, cable and media companies will be attending our 14th annual conference."
