RE:  Bruce Telecom’s wireless number portability implementation plan for Rogers

Dear Sirs:

In a letter dated 20 May 2011, Rogers Communications (Rogers), on behalf of Rogers Wireless operating as a Wireless Service Provider, confirmed that it is still interested in obtaining number portability in Bruce Telecom’s territory in the exchange of Port Elgin, Ontario.

Based on the process established by the Commission, as amended, Bruce Telecom was to file its implementation plan and other required information with the Commission, serving a copy to Rogers, by 25 July 2011.  The Commission has received Bruce Telecom’s implementation plan, and the plan was posted on the Commission’s website on 26 July 2011.

This letter is sent to remind Rogers and Bruce Telecom about the process that was set out in the Commission staff letter of 5 May 2011, which stated that the small ILECs’ updated implementation plans would be treated as applications pursuant to section 22 of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission Rules of Practice and Procedure (Rules of Procedure).

In particular, pursuant to the Rules of Procedure, Rogers (the respondent) may file an answer with the Commission and serve that answer on Bruce Telecom (the applicant) no later than 25 August 2011.  Any interested person may file an intervention with respect to the application no later than 25 August 2011.  Bruce Telecom may file, with the Commission, a reply to any answer or intervention no later than 6 September 2011 and serve that reply on Rogers and the interveners to whom Bruce Telecom is responding.

Yours sincerely,
