It's funny I've been to Toronto for work a couple times and I ask like what the interesting local food is and no one has any ideas. Just feels like a very generic city
This is not what I want to hear
Yeah, it's very much a generic North American city, East Minneapolis.

Wish they had a capitol building like Albany, NY!

tons of movies set in in NYC have been shot in Toronto, just find those places and walk around and pretend you're in NYC

very unrememberable city. Did go see the Blue Jays play just to knock a stadium off my list. Woof possibly worse than the Trop.

Here's a fun question. What's your favorite city you've been to that a lot of people haven't?

Montreal and Toronto are night and day, it's almost like they are on completely different continents.

No humblebrag. My friends and I are trying to plan a vacation. Toronto had the best betting odds but this thread didn't provide a ringing endorsement of that.

As always, go for cooperative weather and a place where you can do stuff very conveniently at any hour without planning.

Toronto would be fine depending on calendar.

The blurbs here about vancouver and victoria are correct, so the others probably are too.

It’s home to incredible restaurants and bars. Its expansive public transit system—highlighted by the famous SkyTrain—makes it easy to get around.
