Some of these are still to be built/mapped
Sept 2016, updated this list, added towns https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r30986416-
Edit: The Fibre optical Network Terminal (ONT) is the Telus modem. You can plug your personal router to the ONT and get service. If you also have Optik TV, you can plug gigabit switch to the ONT and use your router to one port with the Telus Actiontec to another port on the switch. You will get 2 WAN ip address (1 for each). Using your own router for both TV and Internet, you have to deal with TV multicast which can overwhelm your Wifi and shut down your router connectivity. You should also be able to use the Actiontec T series port1 bridge mode while on fibre.
The Telus call center script readers will not support anything beyond their all in one Actiontec gateway. So deal with your own issues with your equipment.
The ONT also has 2 POTS (plain old telephone service) ports for your phone, which can be adapted to connect to your current house phone lines if you don't have cordless phones.
The ONT install might not be supplied with a UPS(uninteruptable power supply) if you don't subscribe to Telus home phone. You can use your own UPS to power the ONT.
both of these links, towns shown, slightly differ at posting time Telus is updating their pages to remove the fibre.telus.com pages
