This Form 6-K/A amends Form 6-K filed on March 18, 2005. On January 1, 2005, Rogers Communications Inc. adopted the amended provisions of The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook Section 3860, "Financial Instruments - Disclosure and Presentation" ("Section 3860") with retroactive application and, as a result, have reflected the impact of this new accounting policy in the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2004 and 2003 and in the consolidated statements of income and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2004. The original Form 6-K, Management's Discussion and Analysis and the Consolidated Financial Statements, has been amended to reflect the retroactive application of Section 3860. As a result of retroactively adopting the amended provisions of Section 3860, the liability portion of the Convertible Preferred Securities has been reclassified to long-term debt and the related interest expense and accretion have been included in the consolidated statements of income. These changes do not affect earnings (loss) per share since the interest and accretion have, in prior years, been deducted from net income (loss) in determining the earnings (loss) per share. Refer to the section entitled "New Accounting Standards".
