Telus corp. makes major investment in agriculture

[ajl]

Telus corp. is forming an agricultural division to sell more data services into the sector. Other than waste shareholder capital, what is Telus trying to achieve? Rather than more investment and technology, this is what the agriculture sector really needs. Government to stop printing money in order to allow assets to be sold to small and medium size enterprises to grow their business. This would encourage the older generation of hoarders to market assets now rather than hang on indefinitely. If would also encourage discipline on the cost side making Canadian agriculture more competitive in international markets. I don't see a role for telus corp in any of that.

Agreed, would be far better to just expand the cellular coverage across the country and make money on the air time and would actually be a benefit to users and the country. Amazing how many area have limited or simply no cel service.

All the money Trudeau has pissed away to s-holes, despots, Liberal friends, buying UN seats, American night time comedian causes, a national investment in cellular service would be welcome. In addition, can you imagine The same money that could have been spent on roads in this country? Sask has the worst roads of any province, like third world country status. I realize roads aren’t a federal issue but if they are going to burn money then may as well spend it within Canada and enjoy the economic boost created.

Truduea announced over a billion dollars for high speed services 4 or 5 days ago maybe tied into this?
