Well,

I don't know about the universities in the states, but in Canada they look at your grades converted back to a percentage. So, it really all depends how your school converts them back or how the university does it.You seem to have some good extra curricular stuff, and your grades are ok. Your safe schools seem to be on the right track, maybe U of T might be a higher reach, but it's so early to judge. Give it a bit and try your best to get your grades up as high as possible.

Edit: Canadian unis also don't require SAT scores so find out the averages for the Canadian Unis if you can because I wouldn't bother submitting if they're below. Although, yours are a little above average! (Average being 1500 total)
