Recent reports say Shaw is among the top four most likely buyers for some or all of Canwest. "Maybe there's ways we could work together to make everybody better," said Shaw.
Another potential contender for at least some of Canwest is Corus Entertainment Corp. John Cassaday said his company would be interested in a select number of Canwest's specialty cable channels but not the entire company.
Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd. who invested heavily in Canwest and the Jim Pattison Group are also reputed to be among the top possible bidders.
