  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.

  Half the people talking about the Telus data center in Vancouver are literally some of the dumbest people in Canada I swear to god. Why Telus? -Because who TF else is going to build it? Why downtown Vancouver? -Because that's where the ******* internet exchange is. Downtown in a city is the most retarded place for a data center!!!11!!11! -No, you're literally an idiot stfu. The data center will be loud and create loads of issues for people?? -NO, you're literally an idiot stfu. Why is Telus the only business in Canada who can build data center infrastructure? -Because they've been doing it for the past 15 years and they know how to do it. Why is there nobody else in Canada who can do it? -Because they all work at Telus. Can't Rogers do it? -No. Can't Bell do it? - LOL. Why can't some other company other than Telus do it? -Because there is literally nobody else. How can a company with no experience in data centers build data center? - They have 5 data centers already and building a data center has less to do with what is inside and more to do with the services it provides and the SLA. How can it be true that the only qualified party to take on one of the most important technology projects in the country is one of the biggest technology companies in the country? - ... How can it be true there is only one qualified party in the country? - Why would the opposite be true?

  @collectibledad @TELUS They billed me for a bogus service for the longest time. After I cancelled altogether, they tried to keep billing me. I said I was going to let it go to collections, then a small claims action, then make my defense / precedent there. @telusmobility finally stopped billing me.

  @PeterMeiszner TELUS established BPO operations via TELUS Digital, which runs customer service and support centres in Guatemala and the Philippines involving access to Canadian personal data. In March 2026 TELUS Digital was breached, exposing nearly a petabyte of sensitive records.

  @BlondeBigot11 @TELUS I can never trust an Indian anywhere near my property. They’re habitual liars, scammers, thieves, fraudsters and criminals. I will never give them my business. Indians are the most dishonest snd untrustworthy people I’ve ever come across. Nothing will change my mind now.

  @BlondeBigot11 @TELUS It's like the indian security guards at canadian tire that won't let you leave the store without showing them your receipt. They watched you go thru the checkstand. The retard that pulled that on me at the vancouver cambie store nearly had his UPC symbol scanned repeatedly.
