    Nighthawk it is still being offered. There's a charge so TELUS can pay Google to run the email through Google. Also, unlike "free" personal Gmail accounts which are supported by advertisements, TELUS email powered by Google does not display Google ads on the side bar or within the email inbox. In addition, TELUS Managed Google Accounts are governed by the TELUS privacy policy, which prevents Google from scanning all your emails, calendar, contacts, etc to deliver more targeted ads (as is done with "free" Personal Google Accounts).

Telus has said in the past one could take their email address with them. I believe at that time the cost was $10/month. Now that the service is managed on Google's servers, it should be even simpler for the change to occur.
