You could always try something in the suburbs... North York, Etobioke, Mississauga, Pickering, Markham, Vaughan, Brampton, Burlington, York, that other city whose name I always forget, Oakville,

MMMM'kay those are NOT suburbs of Toronto. Only those that were emalgemated into the mega city are. Mississauga is closer to Guelph than Toronto. Markham?!?! Please...

Im in oakville really nice here. Type of place where you dont have to lock your doors at night or if you leave your car running in the morning you dont have to worry if it'll still be there in 5 minutes...

I would have went to Markville, but I decided to stay at my school (Sir John A. Macdonald). Do you know a girl named Joyce that goes to Markville? Chinese, glasses (she may have contacts now). Her last name starts with C.

Welcome to the Toronto-area AT squad. :) It's a good city, a little soulless, and the rest of Canada hates us because without us there'd barely be a country. Right eakers? ADMIT IT!! :D ;)

Yonge is the main north-south street in Toronto, with Bloor being the main east-wester. The intersection of the two is the heart of downtown TO (a clever acronym for "Toronto"). Yonge and Eglinton would place you directly on a subway line and it's not even a bad part of town, I know a couple of people from around there. The only advice I can give is if you won't have a car, try to live as close to your place of work as possible. Commuting in the city is a bitch.

No, YOU stop posting. He's quite right - most of us leave out the last t.
