Toronto Explained

We have this little problem up here called Toronto, which is very much like New York City (without the culture, history, and things to do).
…
Years ago, we tried medicating the entire city through the water system. However, the medication worked so well that the Blue Jays managed to win two World Series, and Torontonians became even more insufferably arrogant. Not only that, they started having visions of grandeur, with some Torontonians actually deluded enough to believe that the Leafs could win a Stanley Cup. Of course, we promptly halted all drug treament, and the city soon returned to its usual character.
You know what hurt about writing that post? I used to LOVE the Leafs. Part of me still does. I’ll never forget the ‘93 playoff run with Doug Gilmour, Wendel Clark, and Dave Andreychuck on their top line.
However, the Leafs have become just another shallow reflection of their home city. Empty, broken fools, still convinced they’re just on the cusp of greatness, not realizing that things are falling apart all around them, and everyone outside city limits hates them.
uh-huh. From a guy whose profile lists a city which can’t even field a CFL team (again) never mind an NBA, MLB and now an MLS team.
At least there’s some Conservative supporters here in T.O.
Toronto is damned boring! it is the worst city I have ever been to!
I am moving to Alberta or BC… Toronto is boring, dont you think so?
Sorry to have to tell you. There is no expanation for Toronto.
Oh one more thing – can we swap you some Federal jobs? You give us something harmless (maybe the bit of Finance that calculates Equalisation – we pay for it after all) and you can have the CSIS HQ. We don’t want it any more.
No. You keep CSIS. They should live where they work. It’s more environmentally responsible.
