The parent of Bell Canada has asked the court to overturn a Quebec
Court of Appeal ruling that favored bondholders who oppose a sale of
BCE to Teachers' Private Capital, Providence Equity Partners Inc., Madison Dearborn Partners LLC and Merrill Lynch Global Private Equity. The bondholders had argued that the transaction, which is the largest North American buyout to date, treats them unfairly.
Canada's Supreme Court heard BCE's appeal on Tuesday, but did not say when it might rule. - Chris Nolter
