You will need to connect the TVs to the Telus device, either to LAN 2 to 4 or the Wi-Fi SSID.

NFtoBC This makes sense, but if the Telus modem is in bridge mode, will it still be broadcasting a wireless signal?

Yes, bridging port 1 does not affect the function of the rest of the modem.
Question when Telus modem bridged lan1 to lan/wan secondary router (set up as a 192.168.1.1 - 255.255.0.0 )
If you have a power failure will the telus modem resend a new IP address to secondary upon start up?
If so what steps to correct any changing of the secondary router IP address?

It shouldn’t be an issue, but try setting a dedicated IP by MAC address in the Telus router, or see if there is the option to set a static address in the secondary router.
