In spite of big profits over the years, Telus hasn't built that many big buildings.

With the exception of Calgary, Telus has an emphasis on mid-size buildings. AKA: Vancouver size stumps.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telus_Tower_(Montreal) It stands 135.6 m (445 ft) and only has 34 storeys. https://imtl.org/montreal/building/Tour-Telus.php Perhaps it was a prominent tower in the early 1960s, but today it's more like just another Vancouver size 136m stump in Montreal. Now if it had been at least 55 floors, it still would be a major building on the Montreal skyline. https://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=1427


The Telus_Harbour (Tower) is like another 136m Vancouver stump in Toronto. https://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=42321

Antenna spire136.1 m (447 ft)
Roof121.7 m (399 ft)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telus_Harbour#Location This 32 story stump should have been in the 60-65 floor range.

Edmonton https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATB_Place It is 134.4 metres (34 storeys) tall. https://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=948

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telus_Sky is a 59-storey, 222.3 m (729 ft) tower. https://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=3646 Such a magnificent Calgary building that wouldn't be allowed in little Vancouver. https://telussky.com/architecture 65 levels above ground in total. https://telussky.com/workspace Plus, 6 underground levels.

Burnaby http://wikimapia.org/176259/Telus-Building-The-Boot A quinasential BC stump of a building. If it had 50 floors it would certainly be a tower, but wasn't even allowed to be 25 stories.

https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=186381 Another classic Vancouver stump. https://skyscraperpage.com/diagrams/?compare=90197

https://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=90197 No 86 or 76 levels like some towers in australia. Its just a 46 story vancouver stump when compared to whats allowed in melbourne, sydnet and brisbane.
