Arts are big in certain areas and not as much in others, just like any other part of the world. Montreal is a big art town and you got the right impession of Toronto. They both have a jazz festival every year and are generally pretty artist-friendly. In my town, which is very industrial, art takes sort of a back seat.
In terms of high school, I don't know what it is in Ontario anymore. It's just recently been changed so that there's no grade 13 and I know they have to do community service now, but apart from that I don't know what the requirements for graduation are.
