==History==

The company was formed in 1990 by the government of Alberta as TELUS Communications, a holding company, in order to facilitate the privatization of a crown corporation, the Alberta Government Telephones Commission (AGT).〔〔Wilson, Kevin G., ''(Deregulating Telecommunications: U.S. and Canadian Telecommunications, 1840-1997 )'', Rowman & Littlefield (2000) ISBN 0-8476-9825-4 page 35〕〔Alberta Online Encyclopedia, ("Alberta Government Telephones" ) ''Alberta's Telephone Heritage''〕 In 1995, it acquired Edmonton Telephones Corporation (Ed Tel) from the City of Edmonton〔(CRTC Letter dated June 30, 1998 ). Retrieved February 12, 2008. 〕 making Telus the sole provider of telephone service in the province. In 1996, Telus was introduced to the public as the consumer brand, replacing both AGT and EdTel.〔(About Telus: Company history ), Telus corporate website. Retrieved February 11, 2008.〕
In 1998, Telus and BCTel announced a proposed merger.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Telus Company History )〕 The merger was completed in 1999, with the corporate name slightly modified to Telus Corporation. While the merged company chose to retain the Telus name, it moved its headquarters from Edmonton to Vancouver.〔〔Hunter, Jennifer, "(BC Telecom/Telus Merger )", ''Macleans Magazine'', November 2, 1998〕 The merger created Canada's second largest telcom, with 22% of market share compared to Bell Canada's 42%.〔〔(Canada's Second Largest Telecommunications Firm Selects Click2learn for Learning Initiative Targeting 28,000 Employees ), ''Business Wire'', November 19, 2001〕〔(Fact sheet – Telus and the company's R.O.B. placing ), Telus corporate site. Retrieved February 11, 2008.〕
Large swaths of rural Quebec, mainly the Gaspé Peninsula and the north shore, were served from 1927 by an entity known as Corporation de Téléphone et de Pouvoir de Québec, and in 1955, this became known as Québec Téléphone. In 1966, the Anglo-Canadian Telephone Company, a subsidiary of General Telephone and Electronics of Stamford, Connecticut (later GTE), became a majority shareholder in Québec Téléphone. Anglo-Canadian also owned BCTel, and GTE (later merged into Verizon) also owned services in Barbados, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago. In 1997, Groupe QuébecTel was established to own Québec Téléphone. Following the merger of BCTel with Telus of Alberta, GTE sold its interests in Québec Téléphone to Telus in August 2000, which renamed it Telus Québec on April 2, 2001.
In late 2004, American telecom Verizon Communications sold its 20.5% stake in Telus. This was so that Verizon could focus more on its own services.〔(Verizon Sells Stake In Canada's Telus ), techdirt.com. Retrieved December 3, 2011.〕
