No go!

[JMJ]

An account was set up for me for Internet 50. So the installer/tech went here to check our place and his final assessment was to make holes on the walls. He gave me a consent form to see if I can talk it out with the landlord. Our landlord did not agree at all with making holes the wall.

Question: How will I cancel the account that was setup for me? Or should I just leave it as it is? Or the Tech will make a note that it is not possible to put a line on this particular client?

I suggest calling back to Telus / the installer with the information that the landlord would not sign the consent form, and ask the install request be cancelled.

Your landlord's response is not surprising.  Especially if you are a new tenant and not planning to be there for several years.

Multiple holes is the main reason I switched to Telus.  Telus's wireless Optik boxes allow me to have 3 wireless cable boxes anywhere in the home, plus one wired connection.  Shaw promises more TV's.... however it means holes and cables everywhere.... more holes if I decide to relocate my TV's.

You might need to look for a new place that offers a reliable TV and internet you want.
