It might be useful to call Telus and inquire about putting their equipment in bridge mode. Earlier models of Telus routers had the capability. Found this on Google:

i have tried to changed telus router to bridge mode just now. the orbi router setting remain unchange but orbi still receive 10.0.0.5 as the ip address. When i setup orbi before should alreday set as router mode. Is there any other setting i need to do ? Tks.

So, Telus showed you how to log into the router and change the mode? Great!
It is probably necessary to restart both the Telus and the Orbi. If Telus is really in bridge mode, the Orbi should get a "public" IP address.

And you have to restart things in the right order.
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
It may help to reset the RBR20, the RBK23's router, before doing this.
