I just don't see any benefit to this other than for Shareholders. If I wanted to voice my opposition to this, should it be through the CRTC?

Net negative maybe. There is zero chance shareholders approve a more bloated company. Do you need two people buying telecom equipment or just one?
These are mainly based on cost synergies. That Rogers can buy into Western Canada and up their revenue with minimal or static employee and cost over head.
To advertise the combined companies will be 3000 staff bigger doesn't jive with what these are typically about.
