A True Multicultural Experience.
Toronto
is a bustling city with many cultural enclaves for those who
are looking for a true multicultural Canadian experience.
In June, you’ll find that Church Street and Toronto’s
Gay Village becomes the local hotspot—full of festivities
and people from around the world.At the end of the night, there are plenty of beautiful affordable hotels to relax and unwind. During the winter, head
to St. Lawrence Market and you’ll find fresh produce
in the middle of a market paradise—even when it’s
snowing right outside the building.
Toronto is also known for its parks and recreational
centers, the most famous of which are used by the Toronto
Maple Leafs and the Toronto Blue Jays. It’s no secret
that Canadians love their hockey, but be sure to check out
a game during
the playoff season in the
spring and get in on the action yourself. (Also, try out the
local favorite beer: Molson Canadian). In fact, many Canadians—Toronto
residents included—fell in love with a series of Molson
Canadian ads that aired in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Why? Because Canadians often speak of their national identity
based on how they are not American. Ask any Canadian about
the ad, especially while in a local pub, and he or she will
likely smile and even shout out a line:
“Hey. I’m not a lumberjack, or a fur trader,
and I don’t live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own
a dog sled, and I don’t know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from
Canada, although I’m certain they’re really, really
nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English
and French, not American, and I pronounce it “about”,
not “aboot”. I can proudly sew my country’s
flag on my backpack. I believe in peacekeeping, not policing;
diversity, not assimilation; and that the beaver is a truly
proud and noble animal. A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is
a couch, and it is pronounced “zed”, not “zee”—“zed”!
Canada is the second largest land mass! The first nation of
hockey! And the best part of North America! My name is Joe!
And I am Canadian! Thank you.”
