Telus announced that seven communities in British Columbia can now access its 5G internet network.
This news affects residents and businesses in the following British Columbia locations: Bulkley-Nechako, Fort St. James, Houston, Parksville, Port Hardy, Qualicum Beach, and Richmond.
Telus made the announcement in a series of back-to-back press releases shared on September 27, which we have linked to at the end of this article.
A $ 13 billion investment from Telus is funding the seven expansions. The investment is aimed at improving Telus Internet services in BC specifically, from now until 2024.
Other British Columbia communities recently selected for this investment include Maple Ridge and Burnaby.
Meanwhile, in Quebec, Telus also substantially expanded its 5G network this month in Outaouais, Lanaudière and Laurentides, as well as in the Greater Montreal region (including Montérégie).
The Vancouver-based company is investing $ 9 billion to grow its 5G infrastructure in Quebec.
