Toronto Travel Info & Top Tourist Must See
Toronto
Toronto, is Ontario capital and the largest city in Canada. Believe it or not it is the fifth most populous metropolitan in North America. Next to New York City it is probably the most multicultural city in the world.
Drugs in Toronto
While soft drugs(Marijuana and Hash) are still illegal in Canada, smoking a joint is almost all the time tolerated. I wouldn't suggest blowing the smoke in an officer's face(aside from the annual Marijuana March where thousands smoke in public and police stand and watch from the sidelines). If you get caught with a small amount, they probably will just take it away. Aside from that s/he might give you a 100 and something ticket. The smell of weed is a common element at any nightclub.

Night Clubs
If you wanna know about Toronto's night club scene I suggest you visit Meet Me In T.O.. It is by far the most popular social network site in Ontario and it caters mainly to young Toronto. It will have information about which clubs are hot, and which clubs are not.
Food/Restaurants
Multiculturalism means food from all corners of the earth. Toronto is well knows for its hot dog street vendors, but if you wanna know where to grab those shawarmas or wanna get a list of the top Chinese joints(there are thousands) click Here
Finally xyInternet's Top Ten Must See List
1. CN Tower - The World's tallest free standing buildings is located in the heart of downtown Toronto adjacent to the Roger's Center(Formally Sky Dome), a stadium with an automated roof that closes if the weather is no pleasant. The CN tower is equipped with glass floor, a restaurant, and an amazing panaromic view of the city.
2. Canada's Wonderland - One of the largest theme parks in the world. Located about 20 minutes north of the downtown core. Its open only during the summer of course.
3. Center Island - Take a boat ride from downtown and enjoy a view of downtown Toronto. Includes a maze of bushes, petting farms, BBQs and the like.
