Do the kiosks print out the EI BPs?
Unless the OP is a silver or gold card holder or flying in CW/F I can understand not wanting to Q at YYZ check in only to get a BP. I've seen the check in lines fill the tensa barriers right when check in opens and with two daily widebodies the line stays like that for quite a while from my observations.
If checking bags you are at the desk anyway so it can't hurt to ask.
