That's not free in Ontario, see Tiaribbon's post. I suppose it may be in Quebec.

The Study Permit allowed me to apply for an Open Work Permit but I never applied for it. When we brought our daughter over here to attend elementary school we had to pay International Fees for her but it was worth it in my opinion.

Anyway, the Study Permit is a simple route to go down if you have the funds to prove that you can survive without working for 3 years.
How much do you pay for international student fees for elementary school?

It was just over $6,000 a term if memory serves me right and this was for the period 2004 - 2005 so may be different now. Once we received PR we didn't have to pay anymore.
