Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as corporate counsel in the Province of Manitoba to Global Communications Limited (“GCL”) in connection with the offer (the “Exchange Offer”) by CanWest Media Inc. (the “Company”) to exchange its 8% Series B Senior Notes due 2012 (the “Exchange Notes”) for up to U.S.$761,054,211 of its outstanding 8% Series A Senior Notes due 2012 (the “Initial Notes”). This opinion is being delivered to you for filing as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form F-4 filed by the Company, GCL and the other guarantors identified therein (collectively, the “Guarantors”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 15, 2005 (the “Registration Statement”) pursuant to the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration of the Exchange Notes (and the related Guarantee of the Guarantors (the “Guarantee”)) under the Securities Act. The Initial Notes were issued, and the Exchange Notes will be issued, pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November 18, 2004 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as Trustee.

A. Scope of Examinations

As counsel to GCL, we have reviewed the Guarantee, the Registration Statement and the Indenture.

In addition, we have reviewed original copies of the following:

(a) the articles of amalgamation of GCL;

(b) the general borrowing by-laws of GCL;

(c) a resolution of the board of directors of GCL dated November 17, 2004, authorizing, inter alia, the execution and delivery of the Guarantee and the Indenture;

(d) an officer’s certificate of Riva Richard, the Assistant Secretary of the Company, as attached hereto as Exhibit “A” (the “Officer’s Certificate”); and

(e) a certificate of status for GCL, issued by the Director under The Corporations Act (Manitoba) on May 3, 2005 (the “Certificate of Status”).

We have also examined originals or photostatic, facsimile or certified copies of such other documents, statutes, public and corporate records, partnership records, certificates and other documents and conducted such other examinations as we have deemed relevant and necessary as the basis for our opinions herein.

B. Reliance and Assumptions

In our examination of all documents, we have assumed:

(a) that all individuals had the requisite legal capacity and that all signatures are genuine;

(b) that all documents submitted to us as originals are complete and authentic and all photostatic, certified, notarial, telecopied or other copies conform to the originals;

(c) the accuracy of the responses we have obtained from the public registry offices and offices of public record in which we have conducted searches and in which we have made enquiries for the purposes of giving our opinion herein; provided however that we know of no facts which would lead us to doubt the accuracy of any such responses;

(d) for the purposes of our opinion relating to the enforcement of GCL’s obligations under the Indenture and the Guarantee, as set forth in paragraph 4, that prior to taking any enforcement action under the Indenture or the Guarantee one or more co-trustees shall have been appointed under the Indenture, at least one of which shall be a body corporate incorporated under the laws of Canada or a province of Canada and authorized to carry on the business of a trust company; and

(e) that neither the Indenture nor the Guarantee violate any applicable law of the State of New York of the United States of America.

In expressing the opinion set forth in paragraph 1, we have relied solely upon the Certificate of Status.

To the extent that the opinions expressed herein are based on factual matters, we have relied solely on the Officer’s Certificate.
