Statement of TELUS' corporate governance practices

TELUS is committed to effective and best practices in corporate governance and regularly assesses emerging best practices.  As part of that commitment, TELUS has a philosophy of being an early adopter of best practices. TELUS is also committed to transparent and comprehensive disclosure of its corporate governance practices and to providing voluntary disclosure that goes beyond what is required. 

TELUS is in full compliance with all Canadian regulations and policies - Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance Guidelines (Governance Guidelines), National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (Governance Disclosure Rule) and the Investor Confidence Rules issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA).  TELUS is also in full compliance with Section 303A of the New York Stock Exchange Governance Standards (the NYSE Governance Rules) including certain elements that are not legally required of TELUS.  

Our efforts in corporate governance and reporting continue to be externally recognized.  Awards received for 2007 include, for the first time, the Overall Award of Excellence for Corporate Reporting from the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA). We also received, for the third consecutive year, the CICA Award of Excellence for Best Corporate Governance Disclosure across all industry sectors in Canada.
