It appears you would pay $0.60 per received text unless you have a plan.
If you turn off international data roaming, you will have no data charges.
On some phones you can choose which carrier you connect to. If you set it to Telus, instead of automatic, you will not recieve any calls or text messages.

Hello Meredith23, NFtoBC is right and the link will tell you everything you need to know in terms of cost. Don't forget that you can also unlock your device to use a different carrier (worth it if you plan to travel a lot) and you can also use chat application. Since these apps needs a web service, you can use them on wi-fi (if available) but it's a great way to avoid using regular messages.
