EX-99.2 3 992-prxy_notice.htm NOTICE OF 2018 ANNUAL GENERAL SHAREHOLDER MEETING AND NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS

Exhibit 99.2

You are receiving this notice
as a BCE Inc. shareholder

Notice-and-access

This year again, as permitted by Canadian securities regulators, we are using “notice-and-access” to deliver our management proxy circular for our annual general shareholder meeting to both registered and non-registered shareholders. This means that our circular is being posted online for you to access, rather than being mailed out. This notice includes information on how to access our circular online and how to request a paper copy. Notice-and-access gives shareholders more choice, substantially reduces our printing and mailing costs, and is environmentally friendly as it reduces paper and energy consumption.

You will find enclosed with this notice a form of proxy or a voting instruction form that you can use to vote your shares (see “Voting” below).

It is very important that you read the circular carefully before voting your shares.
