Corus is a Shaw FAMILY thing, not a Shaw corporate thing. I know that one is likely the other, but trusting (naively) the Corus website FAQ on the questions:
Q. What is Corus Entertainment’s current relationship with Shaw?
A. Corus Entertainment was created from the media assets of Shaw Communications Inc. Corus became a separate and distinct, publicly traded corporation in September 1999. There is no formal ownership or control relationship between Corus Entertainment and Shaw Communications. The Shaw family holds the majority of voting shares in both companies. Shaw Cable is one of Corus Entertainment’s largest customers.
If Corus is included, then we add:
