Toronto
Toronto's name comes from the First Nations word Tkaronto, meaning "where there are trees standing in the water." Toronto is Canada's largest city, and is a melting pot of cultures and styles - kids can hear English, French, Cantonese, and Italian spoken most often in the streets. Winter or summer, Toronto has activities for the whole family.
Greater Toronto
Ride the subway and streetcars - It's so easy to get around Toronto with the TTC network of subway, streetcars and buses. Buy a TTC Day Pass that allows for unlimited trips on the subway, streetcar or bus. On Saturdays and Sundays, a single TTC Day Pass is good for the whole family (2 adults and not more than 4 children). Click here for maps and ticket info.
Fun food
Stock up on snacks at the St. Lawrence Market, the city's largest, housed in a huge 19th century brick building. Open Tuesday-Friday, there are delis, produce shops, pastries and baked goods, cheeses, to-go. On Saturdays, there's a farmer's market, offering farm-fresh fruits and vegetables.
