Post a picture. Garter snakes can be quite variable, and from your description, that's probably it.

It sounds like a Garter Snake to me as well. Maybe do a search on native snakes of Ontario with pictures, and that may help you determine what it is.

Sounds like a canadian Garter. I had one when I was a kid.

I'd say Ribbon if the stripe was yellow. Did it have three distinct stripes?
