"What is Accounting?"

The four companies I chose to invest in are CIBC (CM), Canadian pacific rail way (CP), Enbridge (ENB) and Telus (T). Each and every company has influenced me in one way or other to make me invest in their stocks. I wanted a safe investment that can provide a potentially higher rate of return than any other companies. To start off my investment I researched about all four companies' profile.

TELUS Corporation is one of Canada's leading providers of data, Internet Protocol (IP), voice and wireless communications services. It also very popular among my age group and I believe that it continues to grow in to a large cooperation that would in itself challenge communication titans such as Bell.
