Refer to TELUS Communications Company's (TELUS') response to TCC(CRTC)22Feb06-1 associated with the Part VII Application by Rogers Wireless Partnership:   Clarification on the Applicability of Retail Digital Network Access (DNA) Link Charges on Competitor Digital Network (CDN) Facilities.

(1)     Identify, describe and depict all of the scenarios where the company applies link rates for CDN services that connect to CDN services, with supporting rationale; and

(2)           Identify, describe and depict all of the scenarios where the company applies link rates for CDN services that connect to non-CDN services, with supporting rationale.
