@ Toronto is called metropolitan because it is too narrow minded to be called provincial. @ There are no renowned astronomers in Toronto. All Torontonians think that they live at the centre of the universe. @ A Torontonian is a person who thinks he can see all of Canada from the top of the Royal York. -- Nick Taylor @ There is one good thing that comes out of Toronto, the west bound plane. @ Torontonians are not inherently narrow minded, but it is hard to find one who can look down both sides of an ax blade at the same time. @ CBC Toronto will be doing a series on Western Alienation. Shooting begins soon in Mississauga. -- Regina Post @ The best way to look at Toronto is through the rear view mirror. @ Toronto is one of the few places in the world where a severe winter storm could do millions of dollars in improvements. @ Toronto has pretensions of being Canada's New York. But instead of becoming the Big Apple, Toronto has become the Crab Apple. Charles J.C. Lyall @ Theologians have determined that the second coming of Christ will not take place in Western Canada. Not even God himself could find three wise men in the east. @ Torontonians think that Einstein was a redneck. After all, Einstein's theory of relativity didn't put Toronto at the centre of the universe. Charles J.C. Lyall @ If the Globe and Mail is Canada's national newspaper, why is it that every time they transfer a reporter to Western Canada, the reporter buys a house in Mississauga? @ When the Globe and Mail refers to events in the Far East, they are usually talking about Oshawa. @ Toronto's three "professional" teams, the Blue Jays, the Argonauts, and the Maple Leafs, have one thing in common. None of these teams can skate. @ You know you are getting close to Toronto when the highway sign says: Highway 401 Leafs 0 @ Toronto calls its hockey team "The Maple Leafs" because they are green in September, falling in October, and gone by November. @ Who says Toronto has no sense of humour. Anyone who would call the Globe and Mail "Canada's National Newspaper" has a well developed sense of the ridiculous. @ Toronto financiers run in packs and howl at the slightest threat to their privileges. Their resemblence to wolves is so startling that the financial area of Toronto is called Bay Street in honour of the noise they make. Charles J.C. Lyall @ It only takes one Torontonian to change a light bulb, but five more are required to tell the rest of us how wonderful it is that it happened in Toronto. Jim Guthrie @ Torontonians figure that if God had intended Canadian oil to be sold at world market prices, he would have put it in Ontario. @ Probably the saddest thing about Ottawa is the number of fourth-rate intellects applied to first-rate problems. Bob Edwards @ Compared with a Toronto Sunday, a Scottish Sabbath is a French ball. Bob Edwards @
