Kevin Crull leads new Bell Media unit operating all CTV and other Bell content properties<BR>
Bell Media announces major new Mobile TV content offering for Canadian wireless providers</I></FONT>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">MONTR&#201;AL, April&nbsp;1, 2011 &#150; BCE Inc. (Bell) today announced that it has completed its $3.2-billion
acquisition of CTV and launched Bell Media, a new business unit encompassing all CTV and other Bell
content assets. Moving quickly to make the best mobile media available to as many Canadians as
possible, Bell Media announced a world-class package of top news, sports and entertainment content
for Canada&#146;s mobile providers.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Bell fulfilled all regulatory, legal and other requirements to close the transaction today,
approximately 90&nbsp;days earlier than originally expected due to expeditious approval by the Canadian
Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)&nbsp;and the Competition Bureau. Bell plans to
update its 2011 financial guidance to reflect the acquisition, and the earlier-than-expected
closing, when it delivers its BCE Q1 2011 results on May&nbsp;12, 2011.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;Our acquisition of Canada&#146;s #1 media company leverages our strategic investments in broadband
networks and services and enables our promise to deliver the content Canadians want most across
every screen &#150; smartphone, tablet, computer and TV,&#148; said George Cope, President and CEO of Bell
Canada and BCE. &#147;The Bell Media team joins a re-energized Bell executing a strategy to deliver a
better customer experience at every level and dedicated to achieving a clear goal: For Bell to be
recognized by customers as Canada&#146;s leading communications company.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Bell announced in September&nbsp;2010 that it would acquire 100% of CTV to accelerate the delivery of
media to Canadians across multiple broadband platforms. With approximately $3&nbsp;billion in annual
capital expenditures, Bell is investing far more in Canada&#146;s next-generation network infrastructure
than any other company, bringing broadband access to rural and remote locations, small towns and
major cities alike. The acquisition of Canada&#146;s premier media company also more than levels the
competitive playing field in a marketplace where Bell&#146;s major competitors are integrated
communications and broadcast companies.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Bell Media launches today</B>
<BR>
Bell today unveiled Bell Media, a new business unit led by President Kevin Crull that includes all
CTV properties and other Bell content assets.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Bell Media now operates CTV, Canada&#146;s #1 television network and lead broadcaster of the London 2012
Olympic Games; 29 specialty channels, including BNN &#151; Business News Network, Discovery Channel,
Much, MTV, The Comedy Network, SPACE, and TSN and RDS, Canada&#146;s top English and French-language
specialty channels; 33 radio stations, including TSN Radio 1050 set to launch April&nbsp;13; Dome
Productions, a mobile broadcast facilities provider; and dozens of high-traffic news, sports and
entertainment web sites, now including Bell&#146;s popular <U>Sympatico.ca</U> portal.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;I am honoured to lead the team that has built the country&#146;s most respected media brands as we
embrace the opportunities ahead, represented both by evolving viewer and listener demands for
compelling content and rapid innovation in high-speed delivery networks. Addressing these
opportunities means more enjoyment anywhere and anytime for our audience, and greater access to
that audience for our advertisers,&#148; said Mr.&nbsp;Crull. &#147;With passion and an unrelenting commitment to
excellence, Bell Media is ready to lead in Canada&#146;s fast-changing media landscape. Our mission is
to entertain, inform and inspire Canadians on the latest television, mobile and fibre-based
broadband platforms.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">As previously announced, Ivan Fecan retires today as President and CEO of CTVglobemedia and CEO of
CTV Inc.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;As the Canadian innovator who transformed CTV from a collection of regional stations into a
national media power, Ivan is a true broadcasting legend,&#148; said Mr.&nbsp;Cope. &#147;We congratulate him on
his unparalleled accomplishments in broadcasting and thank him for leading CTV to its status as
Canada&#146;s #1 media company.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Bell Media Mobile TV: Canada&#146;s best content on smartphones and tablets</B>
<BR>
Bell Media today announced a compelling new package of mobile content featuring the most popular
news, entertainment and sports programming in Canada, including live or on-demand programming from
TSN, RDS, BNN, MTV and The Comedy Network. Bell Media is offering the package on commercial terms
to all Canadian wireless providers eager to deliver the best video content available to their
mobile clients.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;Canada&#146;s most-watched programming is now available in a package that rivals the best mobile TV
content available anywhere around the world,&#148; said Mr.&nbsp;Crull. &#147;This is the content that
smartphones, tablets and fast mobile networks are built for, and Bell Media is proud to make it
available to all Canadians through their mobile provider of choice.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Bell Media looks forward to announcing new partnerships with multiple wireless providers in order
to ensure the broadest possible access to the best mobile content, and to making more of Bell
Media&#146;s world-class content available to Canadians in future.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Content for Canadians: Benefits for local and national broadcasting</B>
<BR>
Bell will also proceed with the implementation of an approximately $240-million package of
programming, job-creation and technological benefits for the Canadian broadcasting industry, a
package that includes the development of new, independently produced programming of national
interest including dramas, documentaries and new media content; extended news programming in cities
across Western Canada; increased Bell Satellite TV carriage of local stations and deployment of
advanced MPEG-4 technology; and enhanced local programming on CTV&#146;s /A\ channels.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Value for Signal: Bell won&#146;t pass VFS costs to customers</B>
<BR>
Canadian TV viewers will feel another benefit of the transaction directly in their pocketbooks &#150;
they won&#146;t pay a new Value For Signal (VFS)&nbsp;fee with Bell TV.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">VFS allows broadcasters to negotiate fees for television programming with cable and satellite TV
providers. The Federal Court recently approved the CRTC&#146;s jurisdiction to implement VFS, and the
model planned by the CRTC allows TV broadcasters and TV service providers to negotiate VFS on a
level playing field. Bell supports this straightforward approach to promoting access to local and
national programming, and today announces Bell TV will not pass on costs associated with VFS to its
subscribers.

<BR>
Certain statements made in this news release, including, but not limited to, statements relating to
certain strategic benefits and operational efficiencies expected to result from the acquisition by
BCE of the remaining 85 per cent interest in CTV, our planned investment in next-generation network
infrastructure and other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking.
Forward-looking statements, by their very nature, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties
and are based on several assumptions which give rise to the possibility that actual results or
events could differ materially from our expectations expressed in or implied by such
forward-looking statements. As a result, we cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statements
will materialize and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release describe our expectations
as at April&nbsp;1, 2011 and, accordingly, are subject to change after such date. Except as may be
required by Canadian securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements contained in this news release, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are provided herein for the purpose of
giving information about the transaction referred to above and its expected impact. Readers are
cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. There can be no
assurance that the strategic benefits and operational efficiencies expected to result from the
transaction will be fully realized.
<BR>
Important risk factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those
expressed in or implied by the above-mentioned forward-looking statements include the competitive,
technological, economic, financial, regulatory and other risk factors described in BCE&#146;s 2010
annual MD&A dated March&nbsp;10, 2011 and, in particular, our capital and other expenditure levels, our
financing and debt requirements and our ability to raise the capital we need to implement our
business plan, including for dividend payments and to fund capital and other expenditures and
generally meet our financial obligations.
<BR>
For additional information with respect to certain of these and other assumptions and risks, please
refer to BCE&#146;s 2010 Annual MD&A dated March&nbsp;10, 2011 (included in the BCE 2010 Annual Report) filed
by BCE with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities (available at <U>www.sedar.com</U>) and
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (available at <U>www.sec.gov</U>). This document
