For starters.... do not reply to spam or unwanted texts.... this just verifies your number is an active number to be sent MORE spam.
Telus does have a way to report unwanted texts.

TELUS only has the ability to block all incoming messages but you can block spam messages directly from your device. I found this link that has instructions on how to block spam messages: http://inside-galaxy.blogspot.ca/2014/02/samsung-galaxy-s4-how-to-block-unwanted_18.html

It does! I have the same phone. On the screen where you would read/reply to texts tap and hold the spam message bubble. A menu will pop up with various options. One of them should be Forward. Select that option and a new window will appear. In the enter recipient text area, type 7726. In the body of the spam message, just add the word spam at the start(I also add a space after, don't know if it makes a difference,) then click send. Almost immediately you should get a response from telus' system informing you they received it.
