Hi Harsh,
After 12th you can pursue your Diploma / Degree in Canada. But, you will be required to give the IELTS or TOEFl exam. If you score less than the required score, then universities give you admission through a English Language program - what you are referring to as Elly course.
ELICOS - English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students is a program that is offered by Australian Universities. Same condition as above applies.
In Canada, scoring less than the required score and going for a English Language program before your intended main program is not seen very favourably from the visa point of view.
So you should try and score well. Usually colleges and universities at UG level require 5.5 - 6.5 depending on the program choice.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Nithya
