Canfield's move up the corporate ladder resulted from his willingness to embrace change, and the company's ability to groom and maintain talent from within the organization. Although he had plenty of offers, Canfield was never tempted to work for any other company — something Canfield attributes to BC Tel's culture of keeping employees engaged by moving those who excelled in one area into other areas.
With the advent of the mobile phone and the Internet, the next decade would bring about a seismic shift for the entire telecommunications industry. As CEO, Canfield insisted on adding transparency to the company's corporate culture. In the mids, he started holding corporate town hall meetings linked to various locations within the company through fibre optic video links.
He added that getting employees to buy into a company's strategy, especially in times of rapid change, requires that they fully understand the issues. I don't think there's any room in a company to have hidden agendas. Canfield stepped down as CEO in but stayed on as chairman — a position he has held since Canfield remained chairman of the newly formed regional company. He also stepped in as interim CEO in after the new one left because of a difference of opinion on the new company's direction.
Telus was no longer a regional company; it had become a national telecom. It subsequently acquired Clearnet Communications, a cellular company, which became Telus Mobility. Becoming a national carrier gave the company the customer base and the research and development capacity it needed to continue to keep pace with the seismic changes occurring in telecommunications.
Canfield ascribes much of the company's success over the past decade to the company's executive team under Entwistle. In addition to chairing Telus' board of directors, Canfield has served as a director of Suncor Energy Inc.
