  TELUS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TELUS attempted to further expand its reach into the wireless communications sector in May 2004 when, through its TELUS Mobility division, the company made a curious $1.1-billion bid for Microcell Telecommunications (holders of Fido, a GSM network and thus not compatible with the one used by TELUS).
TELUS uses the slogan "the future is friendly" as a marketing catchphrase, frequently appearing at the end of their commercials and as part of their print materials.
TELUS also donated $9 million to Science World in Vancouver, $9 million to the Calgary Science Centre, and $8.2 million to the Odyssium in Edmonton; all three science museums were subsequently renamed as TELUS World of Science.

 Voices For Change: CIRB Decisions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
TELUS applied for reconsideration on a number of orders and decisions made by the CIRB, including the order to offer binding arbitration to the TWU in order to achieve a collective agreement.
The first complaint, filed on June 3, 2003, concerns allegations by the TWU that TELUS engaged in communications with bargaining unit employees, in violation of section 94(1)(a) of the Code, and were found guilty of interfering with a trade union.
The Board found TELUS to be in contravention of the Canada Labour Code and ordered TELUS to cease and desist distribution of "TELUS Responds with the Facts!", and to refrain from further written communications with employees concerning labour negotiations and the union's strike vote.

 To Censor Pro-Union Web Site, Telus Blocked 766 Others :: thetyee.ca
In the past, ISPs such as Telus argued that they served the role of a common carrier, similar to telephone companies, which are not liable for the content of calls made on their telephones.
However, when I looked into their labour dispute with the TWU (www.twu-canada.ca, and www.anotherwrongnumber.com, among others), I saw how Telus is systematically setting out to undermine the union's authority and set the stage for replacement workers during the strike, and to contract out our workers' jobs overseas.
Telus also had to merge 5 unions, or 5 agreements and TWU was the winner probably on the strength of the number of employees here in BC.

Telus gave The Journal an exclusive preview of its new TV service, which operates on its ADSL high-speed Internet network and runs into customer homes on existing copper telephone wire.
Telus is making a low-key launch of the new service through direct-mail advertising in neighbourhoods where it is available -- a far cry from the lavish news conferences and wine receptions Shaw staged last year for the start of its telephone service.
Telus won't say how much it has spent bringing its TV offering to market, but indications are that it has been hundreds of millions since the late '90s.

 TELUS Field - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Telus Field is well known around North America and had the highest ratings for best ball park for 8 years staight by Triple A Best Ballparks.
TELUS Field is a unique field in that the in-field was made up of AstroTurf until recently, when replaced with a more modern artificial surface, and the outfield is natural grass.
Speculation as to why the field was done in this fashion ranges from the argument that the northern winters made it too difficult to grow grass in the infield to a belief that the Trappers major league parent at the time, the Minnesota Twins wished to have their prospects play on an artificial surface.
