It seems embarrassment is the only motivator these days.
What happened to Toronto? When I got out of college (dinosaurs still roamed the earth) Toronto and Seattle were where people wanted to move to. They were considered vibrant, safe cities.

Manalto, Toronto is still a safe city for city of 2.7 million people. Unfortunately a couple of high publicity events has put a bit of a tarnish on its lustre.
Oh, and one large pot hole.

Good to know. I love the Canadian cities that I've visited. My favorite is Vancouver because I lived nearby (Bellingham, WA) for several years. I tend to gravitate to the coasts, but I'll visit Toronto one day.

Jade you mentioned this walk a few months ago. It went well I take it? How did the feet hold out?

Jade, good to hear only superficial injuries. What’s your next adventure. Maybe a walk from Detroit to Chatham.
