Sure you can travel in December. So you have enough time to settle in. Also you can land anywhere in Canada as long as you can show hotel or accommodation arrangements close to your institution. So your study permit paper will be granted without interruption. I travelled like a month before class resumption. You are not allowed to work until first day at school.

Toronto is where you go through immigration. Once in Canada, you are flying domestically so exit airport in Calgary.

We cannot say that will stay at a relative's place and then will fly to the city of our university close to the class start date?

Ok so i will directly exit the calgary airport and will i recieve my baggage in calgary only or in toronto ?
You may need to get your bags in Toronto to go through immigration, and then put it on a conveyer belt to Calgary. You will be told what to do.

Immigration always happens at the first point of entry into any country, after that all flights within that country are domestic flights with no immigration checks.
