The Notes offered hereby will generally be qualified investments under the Income Tax Act (Canada). See “Eligibility for Investment”.

This Offering is made by a Canadian issuer that is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare this prospectus supplement, and the short form base shelf prospectus to which it relates, in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective investors in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements incorporated herein have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and may be subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Prospective investors in the United States should be aware that the acquisition of the Notes described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be fully described herein.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated or organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, that some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of Canada, that some or all of the agents or experts named herein may be residents of Canada, and that all or a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and such persons may be located outside the United States.

The securities offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement have not been approved or disapproved by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor has the United States Securities and Exchange Commission passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus supplement or the short form base shelf prospectus to which this supplement relates. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The Notes will be redeemable, at the option of the Company at any time, in whole or in part, at the redemption price described herein. In the event of certain changes affecting Canadian withholding taxes, the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

The Notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company, will rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of the Company, but will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future obligations of, or guaranteed by, the Company’s subsidiaries.

An investment in the Notes bears certain risks. See “Risk Factors”.

(Continued from previous page)

There is no market through which the Notes may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the Notes purchased under this prospectus supplement and the short form base shelf prospectus to which it relates. This may affect the pricing of the Notes in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Notes, and the extent of issuer regulation. See “Risk Factors”.

TD Securities Inc., BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., RBC Dominion Securities Inc., Scotia Capital Inc., HSBC Securities (Canada) Inc., National Bank Financial Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc. (collectively, the “Agents”), as agents, conditionally offer the Notes subject to prior sale, on a best efforts basis if, as and when issued and sold by TELUS in accordance with the conditions of the agency agreement described under “Plan of Distribution” and subject to the approval of certain legal matters on behalf of TELUS by Bennett Jones LLP of Toronto, Ontario and by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP of New York, New York and on behalf of the Agents by Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP of Toronto, Ontario and New York, New York. Subscriptions will be received subject to rejection or allotment in whole or in part and the right is reserved to close the subscription books at any time without notice. It is expected that the Notes will be available for delivery in book-entry form only on closing of this Offering, which is expected to occur on or about March 13, 2007, or such other date as may be agreed upon.

In connection with the Offering, the Agents may, subject to applicable law, over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Notes offered at levels other than those that might otherwise prevail on the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See “Plan of Distribution”.

Each of the Agents is an affiliate of a bank or a financial institution which is a lender to the Company under a $2 billion unsecured credit facility with a syndicate of 18 financial institutions and each of the Agents, other than HSBC Securities (Canada) Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc., is an affiliate of a bank that is a counter party to certain cross currency interest rate swap agreements with the Company. See “Recent Developments” for a description of the credit facility. Consequently, the Company may be considered to be a connected issuer of each such Agent for purposes of the securities legislation of certain Canadian provinces. See “Plan of Distribution”.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This prospectus supplement and the short form base shelf prospectus to which it relates, together with the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, contain statements about expected future events and financial and operating results of TELUS that are forward looking. By their nature, forward-looking statements require the Company to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. There is significant risk that predictions and other forward-looking statements will not prove to be accurate. Readers of this document are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a number of factors could cause actual future results, conditions, actions or events to differ materially from the operating targets, expectations, estimates or intentions expressed in the forward-looking statements.

      Assumptions underlying these statements about expected future events and financial and operating results include: economic growth consistent with recent provincial and national estimates by the Conference Board of Canada, including 2007 real GDP (gross domestic product) growth of 2.7% in Canada; increased wireline competition in both business and consumer markets, particularly from cable-TV and voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) companies; forbearance for local retail wireline services in major urban incumbent markets by the second half of 2007; no further price cap mandated consumer price reductions; a wireless industry market penetration gain of 4.5 to five percentage points; approximately $50 million restructuring and workforce reduction expenses; statutory tax rate of 33 to 34%; a discount rate of 5.0% and an expected long-term average return of 7.25% for pension accounting, unchanged from 2006; and average shares outstanding of 330 to 335 million shares. Earnings per share (EPS), cash balances, net debt and common equity may be affected by the potential purchases of up to 24 million TELUS shares over a 12-month period under the normal course issuer bid that commenced December 20, 2006.

      Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include but are not limited to: competition; economic growth and fluctuations (including pension performance, funding and expenses); capital expenditure levels (including possible spectrum asset purchases); financing and debt requirements (including share repurchases, debt redemptions, potential issuance of commercial paper and changes to credit facilities); tax matters (including acceleration or deferral of required payments of significant amounts of cash taxes); human resource developments (including possible labour disruptions); technology (including reliance on systems and information technology); regulatory developments (including local forbearance, local price cap reductions, wireless number portability and the timing, rules, process and cost of future spectrum auctions); process risks (including internal reorganizations, conversion of legacy systems and billing system integrations); health, safety and environmental developments; litigation and legal matters; business continuity events (including manmade and natural threats); and other risk factors discussed herein, in the short form base shelf prospectus to which it relates and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, and listed from time to time in TELUS’ reports, public disclosure documents or other filings with securities commissions in Canada (filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com) and the United States (filed on EDGAR at www.sec.gov).

SUMMARY

      The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information contained elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying short form base shelf prospectus to which it relates and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. Unless the context otherwise indicates, references in this prospectus supplement to “TELUS” or the “Company” are references to TELUS Corporation, its consolidated subsidiaries and predecessor companies. Except as otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars and references to “Cdn$” or “$” are to Canadian dollars.

THE COMPANY

      TELUS is the largest incumbent telecommunications company in western Canada and one of the largest telecommunications companies in Canada. It provides a wide range of wireline and wireless telecommunications products and services including data, Internet protocol (“IP”), voice, video and entertainment services.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Financial Results

      On February 16, 2007, TELUS announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2006. The summary financial data presented below as of and for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 has been derived from the Annual Financial Statements.

2007 Credit Facility

      On March 2, 2007, TELUS announced that it entered into a replacement five-year $2 billion credit facility (the “2007 Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of 18 financial institutions, including affiliates of each of the Agents. The 2007 Credit Facility replaces TELUS’ $1.6 billion previously existing credit facilities, which consisted of an $800 million facility, which would have expired in May 2008 and an $800 million facility, which would have expired in May 2010. The 2007 Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes including the backstop of commercial paper. The material terms of the 2007 Credit Facility are substantively the same as under TELUS’ previous credit facilities other than reduced pricing and an extension of the term to May 2012.

Intercompany Debt Restructuring

      On March 2, 2007, TELUS and its subsidiary TELUS Communications Inc. announced that the net senior debt owing from TELUS Communications Inc. to TELUS, which stood at approximately $2.6 billion as at December 31, 2006 (incorporating right of offset), was increased to approximately $5 billion on a net basis as a result of a restructuring of the inter-company financing arrangements between the two companies. In addition, TELUS Communications Company has provided a guarantee of this senior inter-company indebtedness to TELUS. This restructuring does not change the amount of debt of TELUS on a consolidated basis.

Credit Rating Upgrades

      On February 26, 2007, Moody’s Investor Services announced that it upgraded the senior unsecured debt rating of TELUS to Baa1, stable outlook.

      On March 5, 2007, DBRS Limited announced that it upgraded the rating of TELUS notes to A (low) from BBB (high) and confirmed its commercial paper rating at R-1 (low). In addition, the ratings of TELUS Communications Inc. were confirmed A (low). All trends are “stable”.

THE OFFERING

RISK FACTORS

      Prospective investors in the Notes should consider carefully the matters set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of financial results for the year ended December 31, 2006 incorporated by reference herein.

TELUS CORPORATION

      TELUS was incorporated under the Company Act (British Columbia) (the “BC Company Act”) on October 26, 1998 under the name BCT.TELUS Communications Inc. (“BCT”). On January 31, 1999, pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act among BCT, BC TELECOM Inc. (“BC TELECOM”) and TELUS Corporation (“TC”), BCT acquired all of the shares of each of BC TELECOM and TC in exchange for common shares and non-voting shares of BCT, and BC TELECOM was dissolved. On May 3, 2000, BCT changed its name to TELUS Corporation and in February 2005, the Company transitioned under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), successor to the BC Company Act. TELUS maintains its registered office at Floor 21, 3777 Kingsway, Burnaby, British Columbia, V5H 3Z7 and its executive office at Floor 8, 555 Robson Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 3K9.

      TELUS is the largest incumbent telecommunications company in western Canada and one of the largest telecommunications companies in Canada. It provides a wide range of wireline and wireless telecommunications products and services including data, IP, voice, video and entertainment services.

      TELUS is organized into four customer facing business units:

      These customer facing business units receive essential support from the business capabilities units comprised of Network Operations, Business Transformation and Technology Strategy, as well as from the business enabling units comprised of Finance, Corporate Affairs (which includes public policy, law, regulation, government relations and corporate communications) and Human Resources.

Integration of TELUS Mobility and TELUS Communications

      On November 24, 2005, TELUS announced the merger of the wireline and wireless segments of its business into a single operating structure (the “wireline-wireless merger”). This was partly effected by way of a legal entity restructure on March 1, 2006, at which time TELUS combined its wireline and wireless businesses which were formerly located in TELUS Communications Inc. (“TCI”) and TELE-MOBILE COMPANY (“TELE-MOBILE”) respectively (the “2006 legal entity restructure”) into a new partnership, TELUS Communications Company (“TCC”). TCC is a partnership organized under the laws of B.C. whose partners are TCI and TELE-MOBILE. Immediately prior to the aforementioned 2006 legal entity restructure, 3817873 Canada Inc., a partner in TELE-MOBILE, was continued into Alberta as 1219723 Alberta ULC. TELUS owns 100 per cent of the partnership interest in TCC indirectly.

      By combining its wireline and wireless businesses into a single operation in the wireline-wireless merger, which included the 2006 legal restructure, TELUS expects to be better able to leverage the ongoing convergence between wireline and wireless communications technology, more effectively compete with telecom and cable competition, differentiate the business from its competitors by having TCC provide wireline and wireless services to customers, and provide new services to customers regardless of the physical medium used to deliver the service. The combining of the wireline and wireless businesses in TCC should also improve operating effectiveness and efficiency.

      The following chart sets out the current organization of TELUS and its material subsidiaries.

CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION

      The following table sets forth the cash and temporary investments, net, and the capitalization of TELUS as of December 31, 2006 on an actual basis and on an as adjusted basis to give effect to this Offering as though it had occurred on such date. This table should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

      The total net proceeds to be received by the Company from this Offering are estimated to be approximately $995,794,000 after payment of commissions to the Agents but before deduction of the expenses of this Offering. The net proceeds of the sale of the Notes offered hereby will be used for general corporate purposes, including the redemption of the 7¹/2% U.S. $ Series 1 Notes due 2007, maturing June 1, 2007.

EARNINGS COVERAGE RATIO

      For the 12 months ended December 31, 2006, the Company’s consolidated earnings before income taxes and gross interest expense was $1,981.5 million. Gross interest expense for this period, after giving effect to this Offering and the redemption of the 7¹/2% U.S.$ Series 1 Notes due 2007, was $479.5 million. The earnings coverage ratio refers to the ratio of (i) consolidated earnings before income taxes and gross interest expense, and (ii) gross interest expense. The following coverage was calculated on a consolidated basis for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2006:

RISK FACTORS

      An investment in the Notes offered hereby involves certain risks. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus supplement and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of financial results for the year ended December 31, 2006 incorporated herein by reference, prospective investors should carefully consider the following factors in evaluating TELUS and its business before making an investment in the Notes.

Structural Subordination of Notes

      The Notes will be obligations exclusively of the Company. The Company’s existing operations are currently conducted through its subsidiaries. Its ability to meet its debt service obligations, including payment of principal and interest on the Notes, is dependent upon the cash flow of its subsidiaries and the payment of funds by its subsidiaries to the Company in the form of loans, dividends, fees or otherwise. The Company’s subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and will have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay any amounts due pursuant to the Notes or to make any funds available therefor, whether in the form of loans, dividends or otherwise. Because the Company’s subsidiaries will not guarantee the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, any right of the Company to receive assets of the subsidiaries upon their bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization (and the consequent right of the holders of the Notes to participate in the distribution of proceeds from those assets) will be effectively subordinated to the claims of such subsidiaries’ creditors (including tax authorities, trade creditors and lenders).

Bankruptcy and Related Laws

      The Company is incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and its principal operating assets are located in Canada.

      The rights of the Trustee (as defined herein) to enforce remedies are likely to be significantly impaired by the restructuring provisions of applicable Canadian federal bankruptcy, insolvency and other restructuring legislation if the benefit of such legislation is sought with respect to the Company. For example, both the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) and the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) contain provisions enabling “an insolvent person” to obtain a stay of proceedings as against its creditors and others and to prepare and file a proposal for consideration by all or some of its creditors to be voted on by the various classes of its creditors. Such a restructuring proposal, if accepted by the requisite majorities of creditors and if approved by the court, would be binding on persons who might not otherwise be willing to accept it. Moreover, this “proposal” legislation permits, in certain circumstances, the insolvent debtor to retain possession and administration of its property, even though it may be in default under the applicable debt instrument.

      The powers of the court under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) and particularly under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) have been exercised broadly to protect a restructuring entity from actions taken by creditors and other parties. Accordingly, it is impossible to predict if payments under the Notes would be made following commencement of or during such a proceeding, whether or when the Trustee could exercise its rights under the Indenture or whether and to what extent holders of the Notes would be compensated for any delay, in payments of principal and interest.

No Public Market

      There is no established trading market for the Notes. The Company does not intend to have the Notes listed for trading on any securities exchange or quoted on any automated dealer quotation system. The Agents have advised the Company that they presently intend to make a market in the Notes, but the Agents are not obligated to do so and any such market-making may be discontinued at any time at the sole discretion of the Agents. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the prices or liquidity of, or trading markets for, the Notes. The liquidity of any market for the Notes will depend upon the number of holders of such securities, the interest of securities dealers in making a market in the securities and other factors. The absence of an active market for the securities offered hereby could adversely affect their market price and liquidity.

Credit Ratings

      There can be no assurance that the credit ratings assigned to the Notes will remain in effect for any given period of time or that the ratings will not be withdrawn or revised at any time. Real or anticipated changes in credit ratings on the Notes may affect the market value of the Notes. In addition, real or anticipated changes in credit ratings can affect the cost at which TELUS can access the capital markets. See “Credit Ratings”.

DETAILS OF THE OFFERING

      The following description of the Notes is a brief summary of their material attributes and characteristics, which does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture (as defined herein). The following summary uses words and terms which have been defined in the Indenture. For full particulars, reference is made to the short form base shelf prospectus and to the Indenture.

General

      The Notes offered hereby will be issued under the trust indenture dated May 22, 2001 (the “Trust Indenture”) between the Company and Montreal Trust Company of Canada (now Computershare Trust Company of Canada), as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a series supplement in respect of each Series to be dated the series issuance date in respect of that Series (each a “Supplemental Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee providing for, among other things, the creation and issue of the Notes of the relevant Series. The Trust Indenture is described in the short form base shelf prospectus. References herein to the “Indenture” in respect of any Series refer to the Trust Indenture as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture in respect of that Series. The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of existing Noteholders, create and issue additional Notes of any Series under the Supplemental Indenture in respect of that Series, having the same terms and conditions as the relevant Series in all respects, except for such variations to such terms and conditions as may be required, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, to reflect the different issue dates of such additional Notes and the then existing Notes and any intention that all such additional Notes and the then existing Notes of the relevant Series be fungible for trading purposes. Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and form a single series with the then existing Notes of the relevant Series and, if the Company acting reasonably determines that it is advisable or advantageous to do so, the Company may accept such additional Notes and the then existing Notes of the relevant Series in exchange for consolidated and restated replacement Notes reflecting the terms and conditions of such additional Notes and the then existing Notes of the relevant Series.

      The Series CC Notes will be initially limited to $300 million aggregate principal amount (provided that the Company may in the future issue additional Notes of that Series up to any additional amount determined by the Company without the consent of existing holders), will be issued on the series issuance date, and will mature on March 15, 2012. The Series CC Notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.50% per annum from the series issuance date, payable in equal semi-annual instalments on March 15 and September 15 of each year to holders of record on the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs. The first interest payment on the Series CC Notes will be due on September 15, 2007, and will represent accrued interest from, and including, March 13, 2007 to, but excluding, September 15, 2007 and will be in the amount of $22.74658 per $1,000 of principal amount of the Series CC Notes.

      The Series CD Notes will be initially limited to $700 million aggregate principal amount (provided that the Company may in the future issue additional Notes of that Series up to any additional amount determined by the Company without the consent of existing holders), will be issued on the series issuance date, and will mature on March 15, 2017. The Series CD Notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.95% per annum from the series issuance date, payable in equal semi-annual instalments on March 15 and September 15 of each year to holders of record on the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs. The first interest payment on the Series CD Notes will be due on September 15, 2007, and will represent accrued interest from, and including, March 13, 2007 to, but excluding, September 15, 2007 and will be in the amount of $25.02123 per $1,000 of principal amount of the Series CD Notes.

      Principal and interest on the Notes will be payable in lawful money of Canada.

      The series issuance date for both Series will be March 13, 2007. The closing of the issuance of the Series CC Notes is not conditional on the closing of the issuance of the Series CD Notes, or vice versa.

      On maturity, the Company will repay the indebtedness represented by the Notes by paying the Trustee in lawful money of Canada an amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 365-day calendar year. The yearly rate of interest that is equivalent to the rate payable under the Notes is the rate payable multiplied by the actual number of days in the year and divided by 365 and is disclosed herein solely for the purpose of providing the disclosure required by the Interest Act (Canada).

      The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and any integral multiple thereof.

Optional Redemption

      Each Series may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company, in whole or from time to time, in part, on not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) the Discounted Value of the relevant Series, or (b) 100 % of the principal amount thereof. In addition, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the date fixed for redemption.

      In the case of a redemption for less than all of the Notes of a Series, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee in such manner as the Trustee deems appropriate.

      “Discounted Value” shall mean, in respect of the relevant Series, an amount equal to the sum of the present values of all remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (not including any portion of the payment of interest accrued as of the redemption date) from the redemption date of the relevant Series to the respective due dates for such payments until maturity of the relevant Series computed on a semi-annual basis by discounting such payments (assuming a 365 day year) to the redemption date of the relevant Series at the Government of Canada Yield plus 15 basis points in the case of the CC Notes and 24 basis points in the case of the Series CD Notes.

      “Government of Canada Yield” shall mean, with respect to any redemption date, the mid market yield to maturity on the third business day (the “Determination Date”) preceding the redemption date of the relevant Series, compounded semi-annually, which a non-callable Government of Canada Bond would carry if issued, in Canadian Dollars in Canada, at 100 % of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity which most closely approximates the remaining term to maturity of the relevant Series from such redemption date as quoted by a dealer selected from time to time by the Company and approved by the Trustee at noon (Toronto time) on such Determination Date.

Tax Redemption

      Each Series will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at the option of TELUS at any time, on not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, at 100 % of the principal amount, together with accrued interest thereon to the redemption date, in the event TELUS delivers to the Trustee an opinion of independent Canadian tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that TELUS has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the outstanding Series any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada, or any province or territory thereof or therein or any agency thereof or therein having the power to tax, or any change in any official

position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change is announced or becomes effective on or after the date of the original issuance of the Series; provided that TELUS determines, in its business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to TELUS (not including substitution of the obligor under the Notes).

Purchase of Notes

      The Company may, at any time and from time to time, purchase Notes in the market (which may include purchases from or through an investment dealer or a firm holding membership on a recognized stock exchange) or by tender or private contract, at any price, subject to applicable law.

Defeasance

      The provisions described under “Description of Debt Securities  — Defeasance” in the short form base shelf prospectus are applicable to the Notes, including the condition that the Company will deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian or United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Canadian and United States federal income tax on the same basis as if such defeasance had not occurred.

Events of Default

      Events of Default are described in the short form base shelf prospectus and reference is made to that document for a list of the events which constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

Negative Pledge

      The Indenture contains provisions to the effect that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary (as defined below) to create or assume any Lien (as defined in the short form base shelf prospectus) upon any present or future Principal Property (as defined in the short form base shelf prospectus), or any Property (as defined in the short form base shelf prospectus) which, together with any other Property subject to Liens in the same transaction or a series of related transactions, would in the aggregate constitute a Principal Property, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, to secure Indebtedness (as defined in the short form base shelf prospectus) of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary unless the Notes (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created), shall be concurrently secured equally and rateably with (or prior to) such other Indebtedness so long as such Lien is outstanding.

      The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to certain permitted Liens, including:

      “Restricted Subsidiary” means (a) TELUS Communications Inc., (b) TELUS Communications Company, and (c) at any time any other Subsidiary (as defined in the short form base shelf prospectus) of the Company if, at the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which the Company has issued its financial statements, the total assets of such Subsidiary exceeds 10% of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, determined in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, provided that Restricted Subsidiary shall not include any Subsidiary that is principally engaged in the wireless business or TELUS Communications (Quebec) Inc.

Limitation on Restricted Subsidiary Indebtedness

      The Indenture contains provisions to the effect that TELUS shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Indebtedness, unless after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds therefrom, the sum of (without duplication) (x) the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness of all Restricted Subsidiaries, plus (y) the then outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness of TELUS secured by Liens (other than any Lien constituting a Permitted Lien under any of clauses (a) to (cc) inclusive of the definition of Permitted Liens), plus (z) Attributable Debt relating to then outstanding Unrestricted Sale and Lease-Back Transactions of TELUS, would not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. This restriction does not affect the Permitted Indebtedness (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture in respect of the relevant Series) of Restricted Subsidiaries, which is (1) Indebtedness secured by any Lien constituting a Permitted Lien under any of clauses (a) to (cc) inclusive of the definition of Permitted Liens, (2) Indebtedness (excluding Indebtedness outstanding under commercial paper programs) of any Person existing on the series issuance date or at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, (3) Indebtedness owing to TELUS or to another Restricted Subsidiary, (4) commercial paper issued by the Restricted Subsidiaries not to exceed in the aggregate $1 billion, and (5) any extension, renewal or replacement (including successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any Indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiaries referred to in any of the preceding clauses (1), (2), (3) or (4) (provided that the principal amount of such Indebtedness immediately prior to such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased).

Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions

      Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, except for:

Other Covenants

      In addition to the covenants of the Company described above under “Limitation on Restricted Subsidiary Indebtedness”, under “Negative Pledge”, which supercedes the provisions described under “Description of Debt Securities — Negative Pledge” in the accompanying short form base shelf prospectus, and under “Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions” which supercedes the provisions described under “Description of Debt Securities — Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions” in the accompanying short form base shelf prospectus, there are certain additional covenants which are applicable to the Notes that are described in the short form base shelf prospectus and reference is made to that document for descriptions of such covenants.

Book-Entry System

      Each Series will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global securities (the “Global Notes”) to be held by, or on behalf of, CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”), as depositary and registered in the name of CDS’s nominee. Direct and indirect participants in CDS, including The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), Euroclear Bank S.A./ N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”), on behalf of their respective accountholders, will record beneficial ownership of the Notes on behalf of their respective accountholders.

DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg

      Noteholders may hold their Notes through the accounts maintained by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg in CDS only if they are participants of those systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants of those systems.

      DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will hold omnibus book-entry positions on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in their respective depositaries which in turn will hold such positions in customers’ securities accounts in the names of the nominees of the depositaries on the books of CDS. All securities in DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts.

      Transfers of notes by persons holding through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg participants will be effected through CDS, in accordance with CDS rules, on behalf of the relevant European international clearing system by its depositaries; however, such transactions will require delivery of exercise instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the participant in such system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time). The relevant European international clearing system will, if the exercise meets its requirements, deliver instructions to its depositaries to take action to effect exercise of the notes on its behalf by delivering notes through CDS and receiving payment in accordance with its normal procedures for next-day funds settlement. Payments with respect to the notes held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg will be credited to the cash accounts of Euroclear participants or Clearstream, Luxembourg participants in accordance with the relevant system’s rules and procedures, to the extent received by its depositaries.

      Although the Company will make all payments of principal and interest on the Notes in Canadian dollars, holders of Notes held through DTC will receive such payments in U.S. dollars, except as set forth below. Canadian dollar payments received by CDS will be exchanged into U.S. dollars and paid directly to DTC in accordance with procedures established from time to time by CDS and DTC. All costs of conversion will be borne by holders of Notes held through DTC who receive payments in U.S. dollars. Holders of Notes held through DTC may elect, through procedures established from time to time by DTC and its participants, to receive Canadian dollar payments, in which case such Canadian dollar amounts will be transferred directly to Canadian dollar accounts designated by such holders to DTC.

      All information in this prospectus supplement on Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg is derived from Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and reflects the policies of such organizations. These organizations may change these policies without notice.

Payments

      Payments of interest and principal on each Global Note will be made to CDS or its nominee, as the case may be, as registered holder of the Global Note. As long as CDS or its nominee is the registered owner of a Global Note, CDS or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole legal owner of the Global Note for the purposes of receiving payments of interest and principal on the Notes and for all other purposes under the Indenture and the Notes. Interest payments on Global Notes will be made by electronic funds transfer on the day interest is payable and delivered to CDS or its nominee, as the case may be.

      The Company understands that CDS or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of interest or principal in respect of a Global Note, will credit participants’ accounts, on the date interest or principal is payable, with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interest in the principal amount of such Global Note as shown on the records of CDS or its nominee. The Company also understands that payments of interest and principal by participants to the owners of beneficial interest in such Global Note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of such participants. The responsibility and liability of the Company in respect of payments on Notes represented by Global Notes is limited solely and exclusively, while the Notes are registered in Global Note form, to making payment of any interest and principal due on such Global Note to CDS or its nominee.

      If definitive Notes are issued instead of or in place of Global Notes, payments of interest on each definitive Note will be made by electronic funds transfer, if agreed to by the holder, or by cheque dated the relevant Interest Payment Date and mailed to the address of the holder appearing in the register maintained by the registrar for the relevant Series, at the close of business on the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs.

The Trustee has been appointed under each Supplemental Indenture as the registrar and paying agent. Payment of principal at maturity will be made at the principal office of the Trustee in the City of Calgary, Alberta (or in such other city or cities as may from time to time be designated by the Company) against surrender of the Notes. If the due date for payment of any amount of principal or interest on any Note is not, at the place of payment, a business day (being a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which financial institutions at the place of payment are authorized or obligated by law or regulation to close) such payment will be made on the next business day and the holder shall not be entitled to any further interest or other payment in respect of such delay.

Additional Amounts

      All payments made by TELUS under or with respect to the Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or of any province or territory thereof or therein or by any authority or agency thereof or therein having power to tax (hereinafter “Taxes”) unless TELUS is required to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant government authority or agency. If TELUS is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, TELUS will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each holder or beneficial owner (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount the holder or beneficial owner would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:

nor will such Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment on any Note to a holder or beneficial owner who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such Note to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner thereof would not have been entitled to receive a payment of such Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner received directly its beneficial or distributive share of such payment.

      Whenever in the Indenture or in any Note there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal of, or premium, interest or any other amount on any Note, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

      The obligation to pay Additional Amounts will survive any termination or discharge of the Indenture or the redemption, repayment or purchase of the Notes.

Governing Law

      Each of the Indenture and the Notes are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario.

CREDIT RATINGS

      The Notes have been rated BBB+, stable outlook, by Standard & Poor’s, a division of McGraw-Hill Companies (“S&P”), Baa1, stable outlook, by Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), BBB+, stable outlook, by Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) and A (low), stable trend, by DBRS Limited (“DBRS”) (each a “Rating Agency”). Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of the credit quality of an issue of securities.

      Ratings for debt instruments range from AAA to D from S&P, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. S&P describes debt instruments rated BBB as exhibiting adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. The addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) designation after a rating indicates the relative standing within a particular rating category.

      Ratings for debt instruments range from Aaa to C from Moody’s, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. Moody’s describes debt instruments rated Baa as being subject to moderate credit risk and as being considered medium-grade and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. The addition of a 1, 2 or 3 modifier after a rating indicates the relative standing within a particular rating category. The modifier 1 indicates that the issue ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category, the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking and the modifier 3 indicates that the issue ranks in the lower end of its generic rating category.

      Ratings for debt instruments range from AAA to D from Fitch, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. Fitch describes debt instruments rated BBB as having good credit quality. According to Fitch, BBB ratings indicate that there is currently expectations of low credit risk and that the capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate but adverse changes in circumstances and economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. The modifiers “+” or “-” may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within major rating categories.

      Ratings for debt instruments range from AAA to D from DBRS, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities rated. DBRS describes debt instruments rated A is of satisfactory credit quality. Protection of interest and principal is still substantial, but the degree of strength is less than that of AA rated entities. While A is a respectable rating, entities in this category are considered to be more susceptible to adverse economic conditions and have greater cyclical tendencies than higher-rated securities. Each DBRS rating category is denoted by the subcategories “high” and “low”. The absence of either a “high” or “low” designation indicates the rating is in the “middle” of the category.

      The credit ratings accorded to the Notes by the Rating Agencies are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell the Notes inasmuch as such ratings do not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. There is no assurance that any rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any rating will not be withdrawn or revised entirely by a Rating Agency at any time if in its judgment circumstances so warrant.

ELIGIBILITY FOR INVESTMENT

      In the opinion of Bennett Jones LLP and Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, the Notes, at the date of issue, will be qualified investments under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”) and the regulations thereunder (the “Regulations”) for trusts governed by registered retirement savings plans, registered retirement income funds, deferred profit sharing plans and registered education savings plans, other than trusts governed by deferred profit sharing plans for which any of the employers is the Company or an employer which does not deal at arm’s length with the Company.

CERTAIN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

      The discussion below is intended to be a general description of the Canadian and United States income tax considerations generally applicable to an investment in the Notes. It does not take into account the individual circumstances of any particular investor. Therefore, prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the Notes.

Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations

      In the opinion of Bennett Jones LLP and Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, the following is a general summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable under the Tax Act to a holder of the Notes acquired as beneficial owner hereunder who, at all relevant times, for the purposes of the Tax Act, holds such Notes as capital property, deals at arm’s length with the Company and is not affiliated with the Company (a “Holder”). Notes held by “financial institutions” (as defined in section 142.2 of the Tax Act) will generally not be capital property to such holders and will generally be subject to special rules contained in the Tax Act. This summary does not take into account these special rules and holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own tax advisors.

      This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act, the Regulations, counsel’s understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the “CRA”) publicly available prior to the date hereof, and on a certificate of an officer of the Company as to certain matters of fact.

      This summary also takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “Proposed Tax Amendments”). No assurances can be given that the Proposed Tax Amendments will be enacted or will be enacted as proposed. Other than the Proposed Tax Amendments, this summary does not take into account or anticipate any changes in law or the administrative policies or assessing practices of the CRA, whether by judicial, legislative, governmental or administrative decision or action, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax legislation or considerations, which may differ significantly from those discussed herein.

      This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular holder and no representations with respect to the income tax consequences to any particular holder are made. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Accordingly, prospective investors in Notes should consult their own tax advisors with respect to their own particular circumstances.

Residents of Canada

      The following portion of the summary is generally applicable to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for the purposes of the Tax Act, is or is deemed to be resident in Canada (a “Resident Holder”). Certain Resident Holders whose Notes might not otherwise qualify as capital property may be entitled to obtain such qualification in certain circumstances by making the irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to deem the Notes and every other “Canadian Security”, as defined in the Tax Act, owned by such Resident Holder in the taxation year in which the election is made, and in all subsequent taxation years, to be capital property. This summary is not applicable to a holder an interest in which is a “tax shelter investment”, as defined in the Tax Act. Such holders should consult their own tax advisors.

Taxation of Interest on the Notes

      A Resident Holder that is a corporation, partnership, unit trust or trust of which a corporation or partnership is a beneficiary will be required to include in computing its income for a taxation year all interest on a Note that accrues or is deemed to accrue to the Resident Holder to the end of that taxation year, or becomes receivable or is received by the Resident Holder before the end of that taxation year, except to the extent that such amount was included in the Resident Holder’s income for a preceding taxation year.

      Any other Resident Holder, including an individual, will be required to include in computing its income for a taxation year any interest on a Note that is received or receivable by such Resident Holder in that year (depending upon the method regularly followed by the Resident Holder in computing income), to the extent that such amount was not otherwise included in the Resident Holder’s income for a preceding taxation year.

      A Resident Holder that is a “Canadian-controlled private corporation” (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable for a refundable tax of 6²/3 % on investment income. For this purpose, investment income will generally include interest income.

      On an assignment or other transfer of a Note, including a redemption, a payment on maturity, or a purchase for cancellation, a Resident Holder will generally also be required to include in income the amount of interest accrued on the Note from the date of the last interest payment to the date of disposition to the extent that such amount has not otherwise been included in the Resident Holder’s income for the taxation year or a preceding taxation year.

      In addition, any premium paid by the Company to a Resident Holder as a result of the Company’s exercise of its optional redemption right will generally be deemed to be interest received by a Resident Holder at the time of the redemption and will be required to be included in computing the Resident Holder’s income as described above to the extent that it can reasonably be considered to relate to, and does not exceed the value at the time of the redemption of, the interest that would have been paid or payable by the Company on the Note for a taxation year ending after the redemption.

Disposition of Notes

      In general, a disposition or deemed disposition, including a redemption, payment on maturity or purchase for cancellation, will give rise to a capital gain (or capital loss) to the extent that the proceeds of disposition, net of any accrued interest and any amounts included in the Resident Holder’s income on such disposition or deemed disposition as interest, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base of the Note to the Resident Holder immediately before the disposition or deemed disposition and any reasonable costs of disposition.

      Under the current provisions of the Tax Act, one half of the amount of any capital gain (a “taxable capital gain”) realized by a Resident Holder in a taxation year generally must be included in the Resident Holder’s income in that year, and, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, one half of the amount of any capital loss (an “allowable capital loss”) realized by a Resident Holder in a taxation year generally must be deducted from taxable capital gains realized by the Resident Holder in that year. Allowable capital losses in excess of taxable capitals gains in any particular year may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years to the extent and under the circumstances described in the Tax Act. A capital gain realized by an individual or a trust (other than specified trusts) may give rise to a liability for alternative minimum tax.

      As discussed above, a Resident Holder that is a “Canadian-controlled private corporation” (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable for an additional refundable tax of 6²/3 % on investment income. For this purpose, investment income will generally include taxable capital gains.

Non-Residents of Canada

      The following portion of the summary is generally applicable to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act, is not, and is not deemed to be, a resident of Canada and has not and will not use or hold or be deemed to use or hold the Notes in or in the course of carrying on business in Canada (a “Non-Resident”). Special rules, which are not discussed below, may apply to a non-resident of Canada that is an insurer which carries on business in Canada and elsewhere.

      Amounts which are, or are deemed to be, interest for purposes of the Tax Act paid or credited by the Company on the Notes to a Non-Resident that deals at arm’s length with the Company at the time such interest is paid or credited will not be subject to non-resident withholding tax and no non-resident withholding tax will apply to the proceeds received by a Non-Resident on a disposition of a Note. For the purposes of the Tax Act, related persons (as defined in the Tax Act) are deemed not to deal at arm’s length and it is a question of fact whether persons not related to each other deal at arm’s length.

      No other tax on income or gains will be payable by a Non-Resident on interest, principal, or premium or on the proceeds received by a Non-Resident on the disposition of a Note.

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

      The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of a Note by a U.S. holder (as defined below) who purchases such Note pursuant to, and at the price set forth on the cover of, this prospectus supplement and holds the Note as a “capital asset” (generally, property held for investment) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). This summary is based upon existing U.S. federal income tax law, which is subject to change or different interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to particular investors

in light of their individual investment circumstances, such as investors subject to special tax rules (e.g., financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers, partnerships and their partners, regulated investment companies, and tax-exempt organizations) or to persons that will hold a Note as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale, or other integrated security transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes or that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from those summarized below. In addition, this summary does not address holders who own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the voting stock of TELUS, nor does the summary discuss U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax considerations. Each prospective investor is urged to consult a tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. income and other tax considerations of an investment in a Note.

      For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of a Note that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S., (ii) a corporation created in or organized under the law of the U.S., any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust (A) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (B) that elected to be subject to tax as a U.S. person under the Code.

      If a partnership, or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, owns a Note, the tax treatment of the partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership that own a Note should consult their tax advisors as to the particular United States federal income tax consequences applicable to them.

Payment of Interest

      In general, interest paid or payable on a Note to a U.S. holder will be subject to tax as foreign source ordinary interest income at the time it is received or accrued, in accordance with such holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A cash method U.S. holder must include in income the U.S. dollar value of each interest payment based on the spot rate in effect on the date such interest payment is received, regardless of whether the payment is converted into U.S. dollars. In the case of an accrual method U.S. holder, the amount of any interest income accrued during any accrual period generally will be determined by translating such accrual interest income into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate applicable to the accrual period (or, with respect to an accrual period that spans two taxable years, at the average exchange rate for the partial period within the relevant taxable year). Such a holder will recognize exchange gain or loss with respect to any accrued interest income on the date that payment in respect of such interest income is received in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the U.S. dollar value of such payment, based on the spot rate in effect on the date such payment is received, and (ii) the amount of interest income accrued in respect of such payment. Any such exchange gain or loss will generally be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

      Notwithstanding the rule regarding the translation of accrued interest income described above, an accrual method U.S. holder may elect to translate accrued interest income using the spot rate in effect on the last day of the accrual period (or, with respect to an accrual period that spans two taxable years, using the spot rate in effect on the last day of the relevant taxable year) or, if the last day of an accrual period is within five business days of the date of receipt of the accrued interest, translate such interest using the spot rate in effect on the date of such receipt. This election must be applied consistently to all debt instruments from year to year and cannot be changed without consent of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

Sale, Exchange, or Other Disposition of a Note

      Unless a nonrecognition provision applies, upon the sale, exchange, or other disposition of a Note, a U.S. holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount of cash received plus the fair market value of any property received on such disposition (other than (a) amounts attributable to accrued interest not previously included in income, which will be subject to tax as foreign source interest income, as discussed above, and (b) exchange gain or loss with respect to the principal amount of the Note, as discussed in the following paragraph) and (ii) such holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Note. The U.S. dollar value of any Canadian dollars received by a U.S. holder upon the sale, exchange, or other disposition of a Note will generally be determined using the spot exchange rate in effect on the date of such disposition. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in a Note generally will equal the cost of the Note to such holder less any principal payments received by such holder with respect thereto. The cost of a Note to a U.S. holder will be the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollar purchase price, translated at the spot rate on

the date of purchase. The conversion of U.S. dollars into Canadian dollars and the immediate use of those Canadian dollars to purchase a Note will generally not result in a taxable gain or loss to the U.S. holder. A U.S. holder will have a tax basis in any Canadian dollars received on the sale, exchange or other disposition of a Note equal to the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollars on the date of receipt. Any such gain or loss attributable to the sale, exchange, or other disposition of a Note (except with respect to exchange gain or loss with respect to the principal amount of the Note, as discussed in the following paragraph) will generally be U.S. source and will be long-term gain or loss if the U.S. holder has held the Note for more than one year. The claim of a deduction in respect of a capital loss is subject to limitations.

      U.S. holders are required to recognize any gain or loss attributable to changes in currency exchange rates upon the retirement, sale, exchange, or other disposition of a Note. Such gain or loss will be subject to tax as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. Exchange gain or loss with respect to the principal amount of a Note will generally equal the difference between: (1) the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollar purchase price of the Note determined using the spot exchange rate on the date of the retirement, sale, exchange or other disposition, and (2) the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollar purchase price of the Note, determined using the spot exchange rate on the date the U.S. holder acquired the Note. Such gain or loss will be recognized only to the extent of the total gain or loss realized by the U.S. holder on a sale, exchange, or other disposition of the Note.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

      Each U.S. holder of a Note may be subject, under certain circumstances, to information reporting and backup withholding with respect to payments of interest on, and gross proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition (including repayment of principal) of a Note. These backup withholding rules apply if such holder, among other things, fails to (i) furnish its correct taxpayer identification number, (ii) certify that it is not subject to backup withholding, or (iii) otherwise comply with applicable backup withholding requirements.

      Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability. A holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for a refund with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

      Under an agreement (the “Agency Agreement”) dated March 8, 2007 between the Agents and the Company, the Agents have agreed to act as agents of the Company to offer the Notes for sale to the public on a best efforts basis, if, as and when issued by the Company, subject to compliance with all necessary legal requirements and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agency Agreement. The offering price of each Series was established by negotiation between the Company and the Agents. The Agents will receive a fee equal to $3.50 for each $1,000 principal amount of Series CC Notes sold and a fee equal to $4.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of Series CD Notes sold.

      The obligations of the Agents under the Agency Agreement may be terminated in their discretion on the basis of their assessment of the state of the financial markets and also upon the occurrence of certain stated events. While the Agents have agreed to use their best efforts to sell the Notes offered under this prospectus supplement, the Agents will not be obligated to purchase any Notes which are not sold. The closing of the issuance of the Series CC Notes is not conditional on the closing of the issuance of the Series CD Notes, nor vice versa.

      The Offering is being made concurrently in all the provinces of Canada and in the United States pursuant to a multijurisdictional disclosure system implemented by securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States. Subject to applicable law, the Agents may offer the Notes outside the United States and Canada. No sales will be effected in any province of Canada by any Agent not duly registered as a securities dealer under the laws of such province, other than sales effected pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements under the laws of such province.

      The Notes are offered subject to certain conditions, including the right of the Company to reject orders in whole or in part.

      In accordance with a rule of the Ontario Securities Commission and a policy statement of the Autorité des marchés financiers, the Agents may not, throughout the period of distribution, bid for or purchase Notes. The foregoing restriction is subject to exceptions, on the condition that the bid or purchase is not engaged in for the purpose of creating actual or apparent active trading in, or raising prices of, the Notes. These exceptions include a bid or purchase

permitted under the Universal Market Integrity Rules for Canadian Marketplaces of Market Regulation Services Inc. relating to market stabilization and passive market-making activities and a bid or purchase made for and on behalf of a customer where the order was not solicited during the period of distribution. Subject to the foregoing and applicable laws, in connection with the Offering, and subject to the first exception mentioned above, the Agents may engage in over-allotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover short positions created by the Agents in connection with the Offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes and short positions created by the Agents involve the sale by the Agents of a greater number of Notes than may be offered by the Company in the Offering. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Notes, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market; these activities, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

      The Company and the Agents have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Canadian provincial securities legislation. There is no public market for the Notes and the Company does not intend to list the Notes on any exchange.

      Each of the Agents is an affiliate of a bank or a financial institution which is a lender to the Company under the 2007 Credit Facility and each of the Agents, other than HSBC Securities (Canada) Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc., is an affiliate of a bank that is a counter party to certain cross currency interest rate swap agreements with the Company. The 2007 Credit Facility consists of a $2 billion five-year revolving credit facility (as of March 2, 2007, approximately $100 million utilized in the form of letters of credit and approximately $1.9 billion available). Consequently, the Company may be considered to be a connected issuer of each such Agent for purposes of the securities legislation of certain Canadian provinces.

      TELUS is and has been in compliance with the terms of the 2007 Credit Facility and the cross currency interest rate swap agreements. Neither the lenders under the 2007 Credit Facility, the counterparties under the cross currency interest rate swap agreements, nor the Agents were involved in the Company’s decision to distribute the Notes offered hereby. The Agents negotiated the terms and conditions of the Offering and will not benefit in any manner from the Offering other than the payment of their commission as described above. The proceeds of the Offering will not be applied for the benefit of the Agents or their affiliates.

LEGAL MATTERS

      Certain legal matters in connection with the Offering will be passed upon on behalf of the Company by Bennett Jones LLP, Toronto, Ontario and by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, New York, New York, and on behalf of the Agents by Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, Toronto, Ontario and New York, New York. The partners and associates of each of such law firms as a group each beneficially own, directly or indirectly, less than one percent of the outstanding securities of the Company.

AUDITORS, REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT

      The Auditors for the Company are Deloitte & Touche LLP, Chartered Accountants, 1055 Dunsmuir Street, Suite 2100, Vancouver, British Columbia V7X 1P4. Deloitte & Touche LLP is independent within the meaning of the Rules of Professional Conduct of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia.

      Registers for the registration and transfer of the Notes issued in registered form will be kept at the principal offices of the Trustee in the City of Calgary, Alberta.

No securities regulatory authority has expressed an opinion about these securities and it is an offence to claim otherwise.

This short form prospectus has been filed under legislation in each of the provinces of Canada that permits certain information about these securities to be determined after this prospectus has become final and that permits the omission from this prospectus of that information. The legislation requires the delivery to purchasers of a prospectus supplement containing the omitted information within a specified period of time after agreeing to purchase any of the securities.

Securities may be offered separately or together, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined based on market conditions at the time of sale and set forth in an accompanying shelf prospectus supplement (a “Prospectus Supplement”).

The specific terms of the Securities with respect to a particular offering will be set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement and may include, where applicable (i) in the case of Debt Securities, the specific designation, aggregate principal amount, the currency or the currency unit for which the Debt Securities may be purchased, the maturity, interest provisions, authorized denominations, offering price, covenants, events of default, any terms for redemption or retraction, any exchange or conversion terms, whether the debt is senior or subordinated and any other terms specific to the Debt Securities being offered; (ii) in the case of Equity Securities, the designation of the particular class and series, the number of shares offered, the issue price, dividend rate, if any, and any other terms specific to the Equity Securities being offered; (iii) in the case of Warrants, the designation, number and terms of the Equity Securities or Debt Securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants, any procedures that will result in the adjustment of these numbers, the exercise price, dates and periods of exercise, the currency in which the Warrants are issued and any other specific terms; (iv) in the case of share purchase contracts, the designation, number and terms of the Equity Securities to be purchased under the share purchase contract, any procedures that will result in the adjustment of these numbers, the purchase price and purchase date or dates of the Equity Securities, any requirements of the purchaser to secure its obligations under the share purchase contract and any other specific terms; and (v) in the case of share purchase or equity units, the terms of the component share purchase contract and Debt Securities or third party obligations, any requirements of the purchaser to secure its obligations under the share purchase contract by the Debt Securities or third party obligations and any other specific terms.

Warrants will not be offered for sale separately to any member of the public in Canada unless the offering is in connection with and forms part of the consideration for an acquisition or merger transaction or unless the Prospectus Supplement describing the specific terms of the Warrants to be offered separately is first approved for filing by each of the securities commissions or similar regulatory authorities in Canada where the Warrants will be offered for sale. In addition, TELUS has filed an undertaking with each of the securities commissions or similar regulatory authorities in Canada that it will not distribute share purchase contracts or share purchase or equity units that, at the time of distribution, are novel specified derivatives or novel asset-backed securities, without pre-clearing with the applicable regulator the disclosure to be contained in the Prospectus Supplement pertaining to the distribution of such securities.

For the purpose of calculating the Canadian dollar equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Securities issued under this Prospectus from time to time, Securities denominated in or issued in, as applicable, a currency (the “Securities Currency”) other than Canadian dollars will be translated into Canadian dollars at the date of issue of such Securities using the spot wholesale transactions buying rate of the Bank of Canada for the purchase of Canadian dollars with the Securities Currency in effect as of noon (Toronto time) on the date of issue of such Securities.

This offering is made by a Canadian issuer that is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare this prospectus in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective investors should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements included or incorporated herein, if any, have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and may be subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards, and, thus, may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Prospective investors should be aware that acquisition of the securities described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that TELUS is incorporated or organized under the laws of Canada, that some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of Canada, that some or all of the underwriters or experts named in the registration statement may be residents of Canada, and that all or a substantial portion of the assets of TELUS and said persons may be located outside the United States.

These securities have not been approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission nor has the Commission passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

This Prospectus constitutes a public offering of these Securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such Securities. The Company may offer and sell Securities to or through underwriters or dealers and also may offer and sell certain Securities directly to other purchasers or through agents. A Prospectus Supplement relating to each issue of Securities offered thereby will set forth the names of any underwriters, dealers or agents involved in the sale of such Securities and the compensation of any such underwriters, dealers or agents. The common shares and the non-voting shares of TELUS are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbols “T” and “T.NV.”, respectively, and the non-voting shares of TELUS are also listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “TU”. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Securities other than the common shares and non-voting shares of TELUS will not be listed on any securities exchange. The offering of Securities hereunder is subject to approval of certain legal matters on behalf of TELUS by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, Toronto, Ontario and by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, New York, New York.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

      The following description of the terms of Debt Securities sets forth certain general terms and provisions of Debt Securities in respect of which a Prospectus Supplement will be filed. The particular terms and provisions of Debt Securities offered by any Prospectus Supplement will be described in the Prospectus Supplement filed in respect of such Debt Securities.

      Debt Securities will be issued under an indenture dated May 22, 2001 (the “Trust Indenture”) between the Company and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”). The following summary of certain provisions of the Trust Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Trust Indenture. All capitalized terms are as defined in the Trust Indenture (unless otherwise defined herein).

General

      The Trust Indenture provides that Debt Securities may be issued thereunder from time to time in one or more series. Specific terms and conditions which apply to such series will be set out in a supplement to the Trust Indenture. The Debt Securities will be direct, unconditional and, unless otherwise indicated in the relevant Prospectus Supplement, unsecured obligations of the Company. As of August 23, 2005, $1,578,000,000 and US$3,091,500,000 principal amount of Debt Securities are outstanding under the Trust Indenture.

Payment

Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement related thereto, payment of any instalment of interest on Debt Securities will be made to the Person (as defined below) in whose name such Debt Security is registered immediately prior to the close of business on the record date for such interest by electronic funds transfer.

Negative Pledge

      The Trust Indenture contains provisions to the effect that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary (as defined below) to create or assume any Lien (as defined below) upon any present or future Principal Property (as defined below), or any Property (as defined below) which, together with any other Property subject to Liens in the same transaction or a series of related transactions, would in the aggregate constitute a Principal Property, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, to secure Indebtedness (as defined below) of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary unless the Debt Securities, other than Debt Securities which by their terms do not have the benefit of the

Negative Pledge (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary ranking equally with the Debt Securities then existing or thereafter created), shall be concurrently secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such other Indebtedness so long as such Lien is outstanding.

      The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Permitted Liens, which are defined in the Trust Indenture to include:

Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions

      Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction (as defined below), except for:

Modification of the Trust Indenture

      With certain exceptions, the Trust Indenture, the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the holders of a particular series of Debt Securities may be modified by the Company with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Debt Securities or a majority in principal amount of such series voted at a duly constituted meeting; but no such modification may be made which would (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or change the currency of payment of, or delay the time of any payments (whether of principal, premium, interest or otherwise), (ii) change the definition of or the manner of calculating amounts to which any holder is entitled; or (iii) reduce the above-stated percentage of Debt Securities of such series, in each case without the consent of the holder of each Debt Security of such series so affected or the consent of 100% of the principal amount of such the Debt Securities of such series voted at a duly constituted meeting.

Events of Default

      The Trust Indenture provides that any one or more of the following events shall constitute an event of default with respect to any series of Debt Securities thereunder: (i) a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Debt Securities of such series when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise, or in any obligation to repurchase Debt Securities of such series when required pursuant to the Trust Indenture; (ii) a default in the payment of interest on any Debt Securities of such series when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 30 days; (iii) default in the performance of or breach of any other covenant or agreement of the Company with respect to such series under the Trust Indenture or the Debt Securities and such default or breach continues for a period of 60 days after written notice to the Company by the Trustee or the holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of such series; (iv) if any representation or warranty made by the Company in relation to a series of Debt Securities was incorrect in any material respect when made and if it is capable of being corrected such misrepresentation is not corrected within 60 days after written notice to the Company by the Trustee or the holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of such series (v) any failure to pay when due or within any applicable grace period, any payment of Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary in excess of US$75 million (or its equivalent in any other currency or currencies), or any default in respect of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary having an aggregate principal amount exceeding US$75 million (or its equivalent in any other currency or currencies) after the expiration of any applicable grace period, if such default has resulted in such Indebtedness in excess of such aggregate principal amount becoming due prior to its stated maturity; (vi) a distress, attachment, execution or other similar legal process for any amount exceeding US$75 million (or its equivalent in any other currency or currencies) is levied or enforced against any part of the Property of the Company or any Subsidiary and is not paid out, satisfied or withdrawn within 60 days of the date of such levy or enforcement; or (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or

reorganization of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company is required to file with the Trustee an annual officers’ certificate as to the absence of certain defaults under the Trust Indenture.

      The Trust Indenture provides that if an event of default (other than an event of default specified in clause (vii) above in relation to the Company) shall occur and be continuing with respect to a series of Debt Securities issued thereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion and shall upon request of the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of such series declare the principal of, together with accrued interest on, all Debt Securities of such series to be due and payable. In certain cases, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Debt Securities or a majority in principal amount of such series voted at a duly constituted meeting may on behalf of the holders of all such Debt Securities waive any past default or event of default and rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences.

      The Trust Indenture further provides that if an event of default specified in clause (vii) in relation to the Company occurs, the principal of and any accrued interest on the Debt Securities then outstanding shall become immediately due and payable; provided however that at any time after an automatic acceleration with respect to the Debt Securities has been made, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Debt Securities or a majority in principal amount of such series voted at a duly constituted meeting may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences.

      The Trust Indenture contains a provision entitling the Trustee, subject to its duty during a default to act with the required standard of care, to be indemnified by the holders of Debt Securities of such series before proceeding to exercise any right or power under the Trust Indenture at the request of such holders. The Trust Indenture provides that no holder of Debt Securities of any series may pursue a remedy with respect to the Trust Indenture except in the case of failure of the Trustee to act.

Defeasance

Priority

      The First Preferred Shares of each series shall rank on a parity with the First Preferred Shares of every other series with respect to dividends and return of capital and shall be entitled to a preference over the Second Preferred Shares and the Common Shares and Non-Voting Shares and over any other shares ranking junior to the First Preferred Shares with respect to priority in payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs.

Voting Rights

      Except as required by law, holders of the First Preferred Shares as a class shall not be entitled to receive notice of, to attend or to vote at any meeting of the shareholders of the Company, provided that the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attached to the First Preferred Shares as a class may be added to, changed or removed only with the approval of the holders of the First Preferred Shares given in such manner as may then be required by law, subject to a minimum requirement that such approval be given by resolution signed by the holders of not less than two-thirds of the First Preferred Shares then outstanding, or passed by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting of the holders of the First Preferred Shares duly called for that purpose.

Common Shares and Non-Voting Shares

      The holders of Common Shares and Non-Voting Shares shall be entitled to participate equally with each other as to dividends and the Company shall pay dividends thereon, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of the Company out of monies properly applicable to the payment of dividends, in amounts per share and at the same time on all such Common Shares and Non-Voting Shares at the time outstanding as the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time determine. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or other distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs, all the property and assets of the Company which remain after payment to the holders of any shares ranking in priority to the Common

Shares and Non-Voting Shares in respect of payment upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of all amounts attributed and properly payable to such holders of such other shares in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or distribution, shall be paid and distributed equally, share for share, to the holders of the Common Shares and the Non-Voting Shares, without preference or distinction.

Voting Rights

      The holders of the Common Shares shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend (in person or by proxy) and be heard at all general meetings of the shareholders of the Company (other than separate meetings of the holders of shares of any other class of shares of the Company or any other series of shares of such other class of shares) and to vote at all such general meetings with each holder of Common Shares being entitled to one vote per Common Share held at all such meetings. The holders of Non-Voting Shares shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend (in person or by proxy) and be heard at all general meetings of the shareholders of the Company (other than at separate meetings of the holders of shares of any other class of shares of the Company or of shares of any other series of shares of any such other class of shares other than the Common Shares) and shall be entitled to receive all notices of meetings, information circulars and other written information from the Company that the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive from the Company but not to vote at such general meetings, unless otherwise required by law.

Anti-Dilution

      Neither the Common Shares nor the Non-Voting Shares shall be subdivided, consolidated, reclassified or otherwise changed unless contemporaneously therewith the other class is subdivided, consolidated, reclassified or otherwise changed in the same proportion and in the same manner.

Non-Voting Share Conversion Rights

      In the event an offer is made to purchase Common Shares that (i) must, by reason of applicable securities legislation or the requirements of a stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed, be made to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares who are in a province of Canada to which the requirement applies, and (ii) is not made concurrently with an offer to purchase Non-Voting Shares that is identical to the offer to purchase Common Shares in terms of price per share and percentage of outstanding shares to be taken up exclusive of shares owned immediately prior to the offer by the Offeror (as defined in the articles of the Company), and in all other material respects, and that has no condition attached thereto other than the right not to take up and pay for shares tendered if no shares are purchased pursuant to the offer for Common Shares, then each outstanding Non-Voting Share shall be convertible into one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share at the option of the holder thereof exercisable during the period commencing on the eighth day after the date on which the offer to purchase Common Shares was made or deemed to be made and expiring on the expiry date of such offer.

      If all of the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations and the Broadcasting Direction (each as defined below) are changed so that there is no restriction on any non-Canadians (as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations or the Broadcasting Direction, as applicable) holding Common Shares in the Company and no requirement that Canadians (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) hold Common Shares in the Company, a holder of one or more Non-Voting Shares shall have the right, at his or her option, at any time after the date of the last to change of the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations and the Broadcasting Direction; and prior to the closing of business 90 days thereafter (the “Regulatory Conversion Period”) to convert any one or more of such Non-Voting Shares into Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. If all of the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations and the Broadcasting Direction are changed so that there is no restriction on any non-Canadians (as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations and the Broadcasting Direction, as applicable) holding Common Shares in the Company and no requirement that Canadians (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) hold Common Shares in the Company and following the Regulatory Conversion Period there are Non-Voting Shares still outstanding, all holders of Non-Voting Shares shall be deemed to have exercised their right to convert the Non-Voting Shares held by them into Common Shares upon receipt by all of the holders of written notice by the Company stating that the Company is requiring all holders to convert their Non-Voting Shares to Common Shares on the date specified in such notice. “Telecommunications Regulations” mean the Canadian Telecommunication Common Carrier Ownership and Control Regulations made pursuant to the Telecommunications Act (Canada); “Radiocommunication Regulations” mean the Regulations respecting Radiocommunications, Radio Authorizations, Exemptions from Authorizations and the Operation of Radio Apparatus,

Radio-Sensitive Equipment and Interface Causing Equipment, P.C. 1996 — 1679 5 November, 1996, as amended or replaced from time to time, whether by statute, regulation, direction or by any other form of legislative instrument, and includes any licences under the Radiocommunication Act (Canada) held by entities controlled (as defined in the foregoing Regulations) by the Company; and “Broadcasting Direction” means the Direction to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (Ineligibility of Non-Canadians) P.C. 1997 — 486 8 April 1997, as amended from time to time and any replacement direction or regulation under the Broadcasting Act (Canada) or any other form of legislative instrument, with respect thereto.

Common Share Conversion Right

      The Company shall provide notice to each holder of Common Shares at least 10 days before the record date in respect of each general meeting of shareholders of the Company at which the holders of the Non-Voting Shares will be entitled to vote as a class. In such event and to the extent that, after taking into account the conversion, the class of persons, each of whom is a non-Canadian as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations or the Broadcasting Direction, or is not a Canadian as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations (the “Constrained Class”), would continue to hold no more than the maximum number of Common Shares that may be owned and controlled by persons in the Constrained Class in accordance with the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations or the Broadcasting Directions, whichever is the lowest so that, when added to all other voting shares (as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations or the Broadcasting Direction, as the case may be) owned or controlled by the Constrained Class, the Company will be and will continue to be a “qualified corporation” as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations, a corporation that is Canadian (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) that controls (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) a person or entity that holds licences under the Radiocommunication Act (Canada) and a corporation that is qualified under the Broadcasting Direction to be the parent of a corporation that is a “qualified corporation” as defined in the Broadcasting Direction, each outstanding Common Share shall be convertible into one Non-Voting Share on a one-for-one basis.

Ownership and Voting Restrictions

      Non-Canadian shareholders shall not beneficially own or control, other than by way of security only, more than 33¹/3% (or such other percentage as may then be prescribed by the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations or the Broadcasting Directions, whichever is the lowest percentage, as the percentage of voting shares that may be beneficially owned or controlled, by non-Canadians, in order for a corporation to be a “qualified corporation” as defined in the Telecommunications Regulations, a corporation that is Canadian (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) that controls (as defined in the Radiocommunication Regulations) a person or entity that holds licences under the Radiocommunication Act (Canada) and a corporation that is qualified under the Broadcasting Direction to be the parent of a corporation that is a “qualified corporation” as defined in the Broadcasting Direction, provided that if no such percentage is prescribed the relevant percentage shall be deemed to be 100%) (the “Restricted Percentage”) of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company (the “Non-Canadian Share Constraint”). In the event that it appears from the central securities register of the Company that, or in the event of a Directors’ determination (as provided for in the articles of the Company) that there is a contravention of the Non-Canadian Share Constraint: (a) the Company may pursuant to a Directors’ determination make a public announcement, whether by press release, newspaper advertisements or otherwise, reasonably expected to inform the markets in which voting shares are traded of the contravention; and (b) the Company may refuse to (i) accept any subscription for voting shares from any non-Canadian, (ii) issue any voting shares to any non-Canadian, (iii) register or otherwise recognize the transfer of any voting shares from any Canadian to any non-Canadian, or (iv) purchase or otherwise acquire any voting shares, except as provided in the articles of the Company.

      In the event of a Directors’ determination that there is a contravention of the Non-Canadian Share Constraint and that to do so would be practicable and would not be unfairly prejudicial to, and would not unfairly disregard the interests of, persons beneficially owning or controlling voting shares who are non-Canadians, the Company shall send a disposition notice to the registered holders of such of those voting shares as shall be chosen on the basis of inverse order of registration of all non-Canadians. The Company may, by Directors’ determination, suspend all rights of a shareholder to vote that would otherwise be attached to any voting shares beneficially owned, or controlled, by non-Canadians so that the proportion of the voting shares beneficially owned, or controlled, or considered by the Telecommunications Regulations, the Radiocommunication Regulations or the Broadcasting Direction to be beneficially owned, or controlled, by non-Canadians and with respect to which voting rights are not suspended is

reduced to not more than the Restricted Percentage of the total issued and outstanding voting shares of the Company. Any disposition notice required to be sent to a registered holder of shares pursuant to the foregoing shall, among other things: (a) specify a date, which shall not be less than 60 days, after the date of the disposition notice, by which the excess voting shares are to be sold or otherwise disposed of or, if the Directors determine it to be in the interest of the Company to permit a conversion, converted into Non-Voting Shares; and (b) state that unless (i) the registered holder either sells or otherwise disposes of or converts the excess voting shares into Non-Voting Shares by the date specified in the disposition notice on a basis that does not result in any contravention of the Non-Canadian Share Constraint and provides to the Company written evidence satisfactory to the Company of such sale, other disposition or conversion, or (ii) provides written evidence satisfactory to the Company that no such sale, other disposition or conversion of excess voting shares is required, such default shall result in the consequence of suspension of voting rights and may result in a consequence of sale or conversion or repurchase or redemption and the disposition notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and timing of those consequences.

TELUS Rights Plan

      TELUS adopted the Rights Plan in March 2000 and issued one right (a “Series A Right”) in respect of each Common Share outstanding as at such date and issued one right (a “Series B Right”) in respect of each Non- Voting Share outstanding as of such date. The Rights Plan has a term of 10 years subject to shareholder confirmation every three years. The Rights Plan was amended and confirmed as amended by the shareholders in 2003 and in May 2005. As currently stated, the Rights Plan will again require confirmation in 2008. Each Series A Right, other than those held by an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Plan) and certain of its related parties, entitles the holder in certain circumstances following the acquisition by an Acquiring Person of more than 20% of the voting shares of TELUS (otherwise than through the “Permitted Bid” requirements of the Rights Plan) to purchase from TELUS $320 worth of Common Shares for $160 (i.e., at a 50% discount). Each Series B Right, other than those held by an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Plan) and certain of its related parties, entitles the holder in certain circumstances following the acquisition by an Acquiring Person of 20% or more of the voting shares of TELUS (otherwise than through the “Permitted Bid” requirements of the Rights Plan) to purchase from TELUS $320 worth of Non-Voting Shares for $160 (i.e., at a 50% discount).

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

      This section describes the general terms that will apply to any warrants (the “Warrants”) for the purchase of Equity Securities (the “Equity Warrants”) or for the purchase of Debt Securities (the “Debt Warrants”).

      Warrants may be offered separately or together with Equity Securities or Debt Securities, as the case may be. Each series of Warrants will be issued under a separate Warrant agreement to be entered into between the Company and one or more banks or trust companies acting as Warrant agent. The applicable Prospectus Supplement will include details of the Warrant agreements covering the Warrants being offered. The Warrant agent will act solely as the agent of the Company and will not assume a relationship of agency with any holders of Warrant certificates or beneficial owners of Warrants. The following sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the Warrants offered under this Prospectus. The specific terms of the Warrants, and the extent to which the general terms described in this section apply to those Warrants, will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

Equity Warrants

      The particular terms of each issue of Equity Warrants will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. This description will include, where applicable:

Debt Warrants

      The particular terms of each issue of Debt Warrants will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. This description will include, where applicable:

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE PURCHASE CONTRACTS AND SHARE PURCHASE

OR EQUITY UNITS

      The Company may issue share purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from the Company, and the Company to sell to the holders, a specified number of Equity Securities, at a future date or dates, or similar contracts issued on a “prepaid” basis (in each case, “Share Purchase Contracts”). The price per Equity Security and the number of Equity Securities may be fixed at the time the Share Purchase Contracts are issued or may be determined by reference to a specific formula set forth in the Share Purchase Contracts. The Share Purchase Contracts will require either the share purchase price be paid at the time the Share Purchase Contracts are issued or that payment be made at a specified future date. The Share Purchase Contracts may be issued separately or as part of units consisting of a Share Purchase Contract and Debt Securities or obligations of third parties (including U.S. treasury securities) (the “Share Purchase or Equity Units”), and may, or may not serve as collateral for a holder’s obligations. The Share Purchase Contracts may require holders to secure their obligations thereunder in a specified manner. The Share

Purchase Contracts also may require the Company to make periodic payments to the holders of the Share Purchase Contracts or vice versa, and such payments may be unsecured or refunded on some basis.

      The applicable Prospectus Supplement will describe the terms of the Share Purchase Contracts or Share Purchase or Equity Units. The description in the Prospectus Supplement will not necessarily be complete, and reference will be made to the Share Purchase Contracts, and, if applicable, collateral, depositary or custodial arrangements, relating to the Share Purchase Contracts or Share Purchase or Equity Units. Material United States and Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to the holders of the Share Purchase or Equity Units and the Share Purchase Contracts will also be discussed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

DENOMINATIONS, REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER

      The Securities will be issued in fully registered form without coupons attached in either global or definitive form and in denominations and integral multiples as set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement (unless otherwise provided with respect to a particular series of Debt Securities pursuant to the provisions of the Trust Indenture, as supplemented by a supplemental indenture). Other than in the case of book-entry only securities, Securities may be presented for registration of transfer (with the form of transfer endorsed thereon duly executed) in the city specified for such purpose at the office of the registrar or transfer agent designated by the Company for such purpose with respect to any issue of Securities referred to in the Prospectus Supplement. No service charge will be made for any transfer, conversion or exchange of the Securities but the Company may require payment of a sum to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Such transfer, conversion or exchange will be effected upon such registrar or transfer agent being satisfied with the documents of title and the identity of the Person making the request. If a Prospectus Supplement refers to any registrar or transfer agent designated by the Company with respect to any issue of Securities, the Company may at any time rescind the designation of any such registrar or transfer agent and appoint another in its place or approve any change in the location through which such registrar or transfer agent acts.

      In the case of book-entry only securities, a global certificate or certificates representing the Securities will be held by a designated depository for its participants. The Securities must be purchased or transferred through such participants, which includes securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies. The depository will establish and maintain book-entry accounts for its participants acting on behalf of holders of the Securities. The interests of such holders of Securities will be represented by entries in the records maintained by the participants. Holders of Securities issued in book-entry only form will not be entitled to receive a certificate or other instrument evidencing their ownership thereof, except in limited circumstances. Each holder will receive a customer confirmation of purchase from the participants from which the Securities are purchased in accordance with the practices and procedures of that participant.
