1. One of my favorite vacation spots
My wife's aunt lives in Oakville. Gives us a good excuse to visit from time to time.

3. Well, besides one special reason, there are many other reasons I love it..
Toronto is a second home to me, When I arrive, I instantly feel at home.

Torontoians, the ones I encounter, are always friendly. It's a remarkably diverse city, culturally. Very gay friendly. Great restaurants, a thriving theater scene. Toronto is so much like Chicago...different neighborhoods that reflect the diversity of the city. The neighborhood around High Park, Roncesvalles Ave in particular, is interesting to walk around. :-)

Toronto is clean, livable, has a progressive mayor...AND I like the streetcars. :-)

whoisalhedges, thanks for posting this. Yep...I love Toronto!

4. Yayyy... [slow, sarcastic clap]
Hey, I'm from Winnipeg. I'm entitled.

But darn it, I do like visiting Hogtown. I even lived there for a spell.

6. I hate the skydome and the CN tower too I hate Nathan Phillips
Square and the Ontario zoo...the rent's too high, the air's unclean, the streets are dirty and the people are mean...and the women are big and the men are dumb and the children are loopy cause they live in a slum, the water is polluted and the mayor's a dork, they dress real bad and they think they'e New York.

8. Damn right
I remember that sign after boundry on East 1st that says "Welcome to Vancouver" once had "Unless you're from Toronto" spray painted under it.
