I graduated high school in Montréal in 2013. I never had an actually challenging English class, I learnt more watching south park, going to america and reading than I did in school. My friends that only relied on school didn't have the best English either, they perfected it by travelling.
A lot of people go to Cégep in English for this reason too, and it works out pretty well. English is a language you can just catch and learn through immersion, even more in North America where you're surrounded by it. I honestly don't think school is a good place to learn a language. You need to be fully immersed and for it to be a necessity. I learned more spending a weekend in an american household at 8 years old than in a year of English classes in elementary school.
