Dear Mr. Savage:

RE: CLEC Registration of Savage TeleCom Canada Ltd.

This is further to my letter of 3 May 2000.

In that letter, I incorrectly stated that Savage Telecom Canada Ltd. ("Savage") expressed its intent to enter into the local exchange telephone market and offer local switched services in Alberta and British Columbia. It is understood that Savage intends to offer local switched services in British Columbia and Ontario.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Yours sincerely,

Campbell Laidlaw
Director
Competition Implementation
