Yes, clearly a larva and nothing remotely resembling the previous suggestions. It might be something like
this
that has lost part of its case (or hasn't finished constructing it). It also sort of looks like a flea beetle larva, in which case the fluff would be incidental.

I am fairly confident
that this is some sort of larva (beetle?), and the white stuff is just some plant debris. Others can help you further, though I highly doubt it is a wooly aphid or planthopper. There are clear anatomical differences; the hopper is not wormlike and has a large head.

Hmm... I'm not convinced it's a hopper nymph.
It certainly isn't a Torpedo Bug--not in Ontario. The only place you'd encounter them within BG's coverage area would be California.
