Ariel Goldfarb summer is not very nice either! it is extreme humidity , toronto really has worst weather, only nice in april/may and late septemeber/october Vancouver is best, nice in summer no real humidiity.
crxtech1 I thought Montreal has a more extreme weather than Toronto among major Canadian cities, especially winter. But yeah, both cities have an unbearable humidity during summer.
+Ronny C 2013 was a particularly shitty year in terms of weather for Toronto. Spring was essentially skipped, followed by a cool and extremely rainy summer. Then to end off the year at winter there were record low temperatures and at Christmastide the city along with many other places was hit by a massive ice storm which covered everything in a layer of ice, which in turn caused thousands of homes to be without electricity for days and caused destruction to countless trees. The only nice thing, if you care to draw a silver lining from it, was that all the trees and their individual branches had been encased in ice, which made that winter strikingly beautiful in an ironic way, and thankfully most of the trees did survive. I remember when I was in the third grade at recess I was taking shelter from the cold along with some other kids in one of the school's vestibules. Here people literally have to be dropping dead from the cold before they have students stay inside for recess. A teacher made us go back outside and said "This is Canada" or in other words, "It's cold, get used to it." Canadian weather isn't for everyone, but I can say thankfully we do have our share of good weather and beauty to make it all worth it... sometimes... lol. Despite the questionable weather, most of us would not rather live anywhere else ;)
+Ronny C you are right the weather is horrid,summer is too humid and hot and winter is cold and snowy, vancouver has 10x better weather and without the humidity. The humidity ruins the summer.
Youge street really is useless into days age. It's way too narrow and there no way of changing it. Eaton Center is ridiculous for planning. Now they have to go underground to claim lost value?? B ay Street is just the same. There was no real planning done, and now it's congested with traffic..,, Access to the Toronto Islands is cut off>"
Toronto is not what it used to be...it is multi-cultural yes but pockets of the city that used to be pristine are becoming overcrowded and filthy (Yonge/Finch in particular)...sad...as a 6th generation CDN at the age of 50..it is so sad to see a once pristine city and the envy of many cities/the world...an overcrowded and dirty city wrought with violence that we have never experienced before...immigrants are killing this city....too many...too quickly.....very sad
