Seeing is believing. For example:

In Ontario, the law doesn't say where cars should wait when waiting to turn left at a green light.
Apparently, that silence means a queue is allowed. In an e-mail, Ontario's Ministry of Transportation (MTO) tells Globe Drive that "more than one car is allowed to enter an intersection on a green light to line up to make a left turn, provided that the car's turn signal is on before it enters the intersection."
But, beware of local bylaws. If an intersection has a sign that says "Do not block intersection," you shouldn't be waiting inside it to turn, police say.
When I was driving (I don't really drive anymore), I found it common practice to queue in the intersection while waiting for a left turn.
Although, I suppose counterexamples exist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdNWP6tmJHw&t=1m23s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdNWP6tmJHw&t=1m23s
