A dialects accent article on WIKI adds further enlightenment.
Natives of Toronto City Core -- also known as the Old City -- pronounce the second T in Toronto -- and can identify each other instantly as a result. Additionally, in the "downtown" accent, Bloor Street is pronounced Bloor as in "door" and the effects of Canadian Raising are diminished. The Toronto " downtown "accent and dialect sound " American " to much of the rest of Canada; perhaps because the accent is basically Standard American. And unlike their suburban and Canadian cousins, a downtown born and bred Torontonian rarely if ever says " eh, " " oot " or " aboot,"
Suburban residents are known to ignore the second T, pronouncing it as "To-RAW-no", "T'Ronno" or even "Tronna" and Bloor Street as "Bluer Street". Suburban residents describe east and west as the "East End" or the "West End". Natives from the city core describe east and west as the "East side" or "East end" and the "West Side" or "West end".
In Toronto and the areas surrounding Toronto (Central Ontario, Greater Toronto Area), the [ð] is often pronounced as [d]. Sometimes (particularly in North York, an area of Toronto), [ð] is elided altogether, resulting in "Do you want this one er'iss one?" The word southern is often pronounced with [aʊ]. In the regional area north of York and south of Parry Sound, notably among those who were born in these bedroom communities (Barrie, Vaughan, Orillia, Bradford, Newmarket) as opposed to those who moved there to commute, the cutting down of syllables is often heard, e.g. "probably" is reduced to "prolly", or "probly" when used as a response.
