Typically they will unlock it if the phone is paid off.
See >> http://mobility.telus.com/en/AB/Unlock-Device/unlocking_your_device.shtml
Eligibility
Device unlocking applies to TELUS postpaid and prepaid SIM-based devices that operate on our Mike, and 4G networks. For subsidized devices, you must ensure that your device has been on the TELUS network for a minimum of 90 days and that your account is up to date and in good standing. If you have purchased your phone outright or do not have an outstanding Device Balance, the device can be unlocked immediately. A one-time fee will apply.
Rates
A $35 fee will be applied to your TELUS account.

Will Telus unlock another carrier's phone so I can use on my Telus acct? Same price of $35? I would like to use a iphone that was given to me but is locked to another carrier. I am still under contract with Telus until next year and I don't want wait to get a new phone.
Thank you

Telus will only unlock devices on their network. If the phone is from another carrier, they'll have to unlock it.

Bought a used iPhone 4S that is locked to Telus, I am not a Telus customer so can I get it unlocked or does the original owner have to?
And what if the original owner is not a Telus customer anymore, can it still be unlocked for 35$?
Thanks in advance!

The previous owner must have an active Telus account and he must agree to pay the $35 fee for the unlock request.
