First let me disclaim that I am hardly the person to rate Canadian colleges, however I am a decent observer and can certainly say that Seneca is very active on this list, and the list of projects they've had students tackling is impressive. That said - I'd actively encourage you to have him look into open source communities that he can actively participate in (if he isn't already) Fedora would be my first recommendation (albeit a biased one) and we have a number of high school students who have become core and key contributors, and I think tend to be pretty welcoming.
