Orcas are larger versions of Dolphins and are the smartest creatures in the ocean. They will know that you are not food, but do your best to keep your distance. Obviously if they pop up close to you, stay as clam. Video and photo what you see if you can, but I wouldn't chase them down, if they feel threatened in any way they could become aggressive.

I was off mission beach once in my kayak when a massive pod of dolphin swam through the area I was paddling in. They were amazing to watch but really, I wasn't even a concern to them, the food they were heading for was.

There have not been any attacks on humans by any Orca in the wild. Easyday was correct.
