  @LukeRadau @TELUS I've got a booster too. Weird part is when my hub fails my cell phone still has good functional internet service. Thought they both worked off same cell signal.

  @Shawhelp Well another day another stupid dropped connection. Happened last night and tonight. Normally it’s every two days. This is unacceptable. I think it’s time to say buh bye to Shaw @telus make us a deal

  @Shawhelp We’ve screen shots of every conversation with them. It’s every 24- 48 hours. We will be speaking to @TELUS to bring us service since it’s obvious Shaw can’t nor do they care.

  @Budwiser620 @iamkennethchan Yeah but they can ration people's showers to once every three days. Problem solved and Telus has enough water for their data center.

  @EvanLSolomon Zero qualifications to handle AI and digital innovation. Wtf does a broadcaster know about LLMs? ******* gong show of a government. Tell us taxpayers how much kickback from Telus you are going to get.

  @MarkJCarney The money telus received during covid to support federal surveillance should cover the costs.

  @howisthismylif @TELUS 100% shady. Nobody should be buying anything from outbound sales. I worked sales, mostly in telecommunications for 20 years. The worst cases of fraud and lies come from 3rd party outbound sales.

  @GradyTripp00 @MarkJCarney Don't worry, Telus said the water run off from the stadium will fix everything. Ignore the long dry hot summers we've been having.

  "We are getting to a point where not answering your phone is the safest thing to do" These scam calls are so common, and usually involve the scammers spoofing a local number to help fool the victim. Somehow @TELUS is unable (or unwilling) to do anything about number spoofing 😑

  @TELUS I haven’t been advised anything. The customer service rep I spoke to couldn’t answer anything. Mind you I ordered this phone on April 30.

  This would, of course be the sensible way of proceeding. Problem is they would have admit that Canada does not, and will not have a "Sovereign" anything ICT related. And, Telus, Bell, and Rogers are laden with debt and desperate for growth.

  One of Canada's largest telecom companies just became a real estate developer. And the story behind how is worth paying attention to. Telus owns over 2,300 institutional properties across Canada. Most of them were built decades ago to house copper-based telephone exchange equipment the backbone of the country's phone system. As Telus migrated to fibre optics, that equipment shrank dramatically. Suddenly they had hundreds of well-located properties in the heart of Canadian communities sitting largely empty. So instead of selling, they decided to build. Through an initiative called Telus Living, they are now repurposing and monetizing those former exchange sites into purpose-built rental housing. The company has identified approximately 200 sites for alternative uses. The projected stabilized value of the portfolio could reach up to $3 billion. The execution is already well underway. Their first building in Nanaimo received its occupancy permit at the end of April and began welcoming residents last week. Vancouver's Point Grey is under construction. A further 18 properties are proposed to add over 3,000 homes across BC over the next six years, with plans to expand to Alberta and Quebec. Telus Living could eventually deliver 5,000 to 10,000 units in BC alone. There are a few things that make this story interesting beyond the headlines. First, the locations. These aren't suburban greenfields. They are infill sites in established neighbourhoods, exactly where rental housing demand is highest and new supply is hardest to create. Telus didn't have to find the land. They already owned it. Second, the model. Telus Living could eventually be converted into a REIT, turning a telecom company's real estate liability into a standalone investment vehicle generating long-term rental income. Third, the broader signal. When a company with no background in real estate development looks at its asset base and sees a $3 billion housing opportunity, it tells you something about where value is being created in Canada right now. The housing crisis and shifting technology created an opening. Telus walked through it.

  @BlondeBigot11 @TELUS I'd turn the dogs loose on them, they'd probably smell them and want to roll around on them though thinking they're rolling in ****
