Thank you Ibotori for bringing this topic up. I too, am a strong proponent of Telus not having anything to do with Huawei. I've been in contact with my MP and have voiced my concerns with her. It is absolutely wrong to consider doing business with this company, when we have 2 Canadian Citizens in jail in China. When our own CSIS decries Huawei's credibility citing concerns of spying, etc. Canadians & businesses must pay attention.
I have been waiting on renewing a contract with Telus for cell phones, and all my home packages as I was concerned about Telus' involvement with Huawei. This is good news for me, as I have been a cell phone account holder with Telus since 1996.
This was really the only responsible decision Telus could make as a good Canadian corporate citizen.
This is only a PR move. Huawei is highly embedded in Telus and they have not made any commitment to disengage from Huawei and the Chinese Communist Party as yet, as far as I can tell. I intend to cancel my Telus service and switch to Rogers unless they make that commitment.
