Compared to European Cities, Toronto is a dump!!!
I love European cities as much as the next guy. But I do get a bit tired of Canadians going on vacation to a city like London for a week, spending there time in the square mile and Harrod's and then declaring it to be the greatest thing on earth. Urban critiquing by casual tourism just seems hollow to me. I would probably like Toronto more if I got to stay in a hotel and spend my time taking pictures and going to museums.
Excellent point. I always make a point of travelling off the beaten path when I travel, whether abroad or in Canada.
How many people on this board have bothered to visit Moosenee or Miluakee? There's lots to be said about mingling with the natives, as opposed to the bellhops and porters of the hotel you are staying in.......

I love Toronto but it's not sexy. Paris, New York, London, San Francisco, etc are sexy.
