Wireless technology offers many benefits to Canadians.
Millions of individuals rely on wireless communications to enhance
their personal security and safety, enjoy more frequent contact
with family, friends and business associates, and make more productive
use of their personal and professional time. As more people
use wireless services, TELUS is required to respond to the needs
of its customers across Canada through network expansion and improvements.
Although Industry Canada has exclusive jurisdiction
over the placement of wireless telecommunications facilities, service
providers are required to consult with land use authorities over
significant proposals. The municipal consultation process is intended
to provide an opportunity to have land use concerns addressed while
respecting federal jurisdiction over the installation and operations
of telecommunications systems.
Bringing wireless technology to communities is
a collaborative effort. TELUS works with local residents, community
members and governing bodies to ensure service is implemented in
a future friendly way.
