Toronto Sucks
Totally off-topic but I just thought this was kinda interesting. I'm a listener of a Canadian comedy/folk group call The Arogant Worms. They have a song called "Toronto Sucks" which I hadn't really given any significance till I saw this. I was hoping we could get some of our Canadian members (Radio?, garçon?, Twitch?) to comment on it:
"Let's all hate Toronto."

Toronto bashing isn't political. It's scientific.

Well, Hiby isn't around to defend Toronto, but my experience has been that if you don't live there you tend not to like it very much. From a maritime perspective a lot of money and jobs have moved west to Toronto. I myself can't say I hate Toronto, but yet still have not taken up an open offer of a place to stay there rent free from a relative, despite several tries to get me to go.
Anyway it's late, maybe I will have something more intelligent to say tomorrow... |

It seems like at least one aspect of the article seems acurate, when it states that anti-Toronto sentiment is stronger towards Vancouver. Twitch, being from the Maritimes doesn't mind Toronto as much as Radio, who's from BC... interesting.

Being a Torontonian myself, I can definately see what the rest of the country (or world?) sees when saying that Torontonians can be unfriendly, arrogant, ignorant, or any combination of the above. I've got many relatives who moved to Toronto from out of city/province/country/planet who all complain about how "cold" people here are in one way or another.
What causes it? I wish I knew. Maybe some of it is the bustle and rushing attitude of a big city that has a large economy. Part of it could the be population density and how it affects people on a large scale. I'm not looking for excuses, but explanations. I for one would like to see it change. And don't get me started on how Toronto's being run. I do think that Toronto is a great city, but it does have juuuuust a few problems.
