And what about customers who, unlike Telus, don't want anything to do with a company like Google who eagerly helps police state dictators like Communist China censor what their customers can discover and explore on the Web?
Who eagerly helps the Communist Chinese fascists spy on their citizens and assign them "social scores" that determine what kind of job they can have, whether their kids can go to school, whether they can travel, etc.
Telus might not mind working with Google despite their record of privacy breaches and helping murderous police state dictators. But that goes against everything I believe in after wearing a Canadian infantryman's uniform for 30 years, being deployed against murderous dictators exactly like that. And against everything I believe in as a Canadian.
What about that? Don't worry about it? Go ahead, change my mind...

totally agree. if i wanted a gmail i would get one, now we are forced into it by telus.
They will not give me a good answer as to why I am paying $8/mo for my telus email now that it is really gmail. no choice in this sucks.

Telus offers the ability to retain one's Telus email address (for a fee) while not being a Telus customer. It is especially handy for folks who move to a location where Telus does not provide internet services, but the individual has their Telus email assigned to a bunch of services.
