Last few years, their dividend growth has been spectacular and of course, they cant really keep that up. But still 4% seems really low. I initiated a position this summer and was hoping to something better than 4%. But I'll take it

Should have them all updated. Eventually I would like to get a tab made for every company so I can show the annual increases for each one on its own tab, but I suppose it isn't too important until we get a year or two down the road.

Woohoo! This dividend raise was long overdue (I was expecting an announcement in September). Better late than never

I second that -- thanks Eric!

No problem, happy to do it if people are finding it useful. Now that I have everything set up, it doesn't take much to copy/paste the information in.

From the Telus (TU) investor relations web site:

Quote:In November 2014, the TELUS Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of 40 cents ($0.40) Canadian per share on the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company payable on January 2, 2015 to holders of record at the close of business on December 11, 2014. This fourth quarter dividend represents a four cent or 11.1% increase from the $0.36 quarterly dividend paid on January 2, 2014.

Second $0.02 of the year. Of course, the currency exhange dampens that but we're still looking at close to 4% yield in USD.
