Cogeco Cable Inc. 2005
Building Together
Behind an enterprise’s products and services, there are people. These employees who day after day ensure customer satisfaction
and the return on shareholders’ assets.
At Cogeco Cable, our employees are the strength of our business, and they are always striving to offer the finest service possible. Their team
spirit and dedication constitute an assurance for our shareholders, since they take the Corporation’s growth and its future to heart. Through
all of our acquisitions, Cogeco Cable has been able to integrate its new members and to create a solid business. Combining passion and loyalty,
our employees work together with enthusiasm, dedication and talent to create value for our customers and for our shareholders.
Our Board of Directors embodies experience, creativity and rigour. Our handpicked directors ensure compliance to Cogeco Cable’s best practices
and contribute to its growth through their savoir-faire, their long experience in business and their sense of innovation. The rules of governance
implemented are rigorously followed and evaluated. They are the assurance of the Corporation’s integrity.
Cogeco Cable maintains a long tradition of partnership with the communities in which it operates.
Since its founding, the Corporation has acted as a true partner by becoming involved in various fields: health, education, arts, and social
or community causes, depending on needs.
In addition, Cogeco Cable’s employees take the improvement of their communities to heart. Many offer their time, their talents and dedication
to various causes, whether as members of Boards of Directors, occasional helpers or ongoing volunteers.
With its 36 local television stations, TVCOGECO broadcasts programming that reflects the concerns of its communities in each of its markets.
With the help of numerous volunteers who learn about the world of television broadcasting, TVCOGECO produces informative and entertaining
local programming, including public affairs and live coverage, that is exclusive to Cogeco Cable customers.
In 2005, TVCOGECO enjoyed major successes with network broadcasting of Québec Major Junior Hockey League hockey matches
and of Secondaire en spectacle in Québec, Ontario Hockey League coverage and the first annual Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards, in Ontario.
Along with these achievements, add the debates of many municipal councils, fund-raising activities and other unique productions. TVCOGECO
is very much rooted in the communities: one of every two customers watches it and its broadcasts provided free on VOD are extremely popular.
