 Telus (TSX: T) (NYSE: TU) is a telephone company in Canada, the country's second-largest telecommunications carrier after BCE (Bell Canada). It is the primary local telephone service provider (or ILEC) in Alberta and most of British Columbia, as well as in portions of eastern Quebec near Quebec City and the Gaspé region; it competes with BCE and other telephone companies as a CLEC in many parts of Canada that lie outside of Telus' ILEC regions. While the company style guide prefers to refer the company in all-uppercase letters, the name is not an acronym and usage outside the company tends to stick to a mixed-case format.

History
The brand name "Telus" was first used, in 1990, as a new name for the former Alberta Government Telephones after this organization was privatized by the Alberta provincial government. In 1995, Telus purchased Ed Tel from the City of Edmonton, ending the era of government-owned telecommunications carriers in Alberta.

A new version of Telus was formed in January 1999 via the merger of GTE subsidiary BC Tel, the former monopoly telecommunications service provider in British Columbia, and the "Alberta only" version of Telus. Although BC Tel was the larger of the two merging companies the new entity decided to retain the Telus name, abandoning the regional connotations of the BC Tel brand, while expanding its reach to compete on a national and international scale.
