'As we continue to advance the Bell Aliant 2009 business plan and focus on our strategic objectives, xwave remains an important part of our business in serving our enterprise customers with IT solutions. We look forward to working with Abilis through this swift transition for our employees and our clients.'

'This transaction allows us to capitalize on our previous successes and expand products and services to a new customer base.' The companies will work together to ensure the transition is as seamless as possible.
