“Wireless connectivity will spur our community’s ambitions and will give us the technology tools we need to attract families and businesses and boost our economy,” says Paul Labranche, mayor of Saint-Adelphe. “We are looking forward to this new investment by TELUS, which will enhance connectivity and security. Saint-Adelphe will also benefit from world-class high-speed Internet with fibre straight to homes and businesses. High speed is crucial for online studies, work and access to health care, not to mention any business success in an increasingly digital world.”

Over the last two decades, TELUS has invested nearly $30 billion in Quebec’s economy, notably in infrastructure, spectrum licences, and operations to improve the coverage, speed and reliability of our world-class networks, with a special focus on serving remote communities. This spend includes an investment of $300 million since 2013 to deploy our PureFibre network in Quebec regions with $72 million in support from the federal and provincial governments.
