On Friday, B.C. Supreme Court ruled in favour of Edward Rogers, validating the latter's new board of directors, which would supersede the existing Rogers Communications Inc. board, which his family sits on. In a statement released on Sunday evening, Rogers Communications Inc. (RCI) said in an email it, "will not seek an appeal of last week's British Columbia Supreme Court ruling." Edward Rogers was removed as chair of the board, when it was revealed he planned to remove 9 of the company's 11 top executives, including CEO Joe Natale. In response, Edward Rogers used his position as chair of the Rogers Control Trust, which holds 97.5% of voting shares, to replace the existing board with his own directors, with the latter then re-electing the son of Ted Rogers as chair again.
