    My fellow GTAers (if that's a word)... I only posted this message to let you all know how pretty much all of you had been last week, really insulting to some other people who posted quite harmless messages.

  2. CanadarareA native or inhabitant of the Greater Toronto Area, the most populous urban region in Southern Ontario, Canada.

    There seem to be a lot of Toronto people online in various corners of the Internet. I've bumped into at least ten other GTAers in various international fora, without really looking.

    Ahh, a teacher in Ontario, perhaps one of the most under-appreciated people around. Just out curiosity Krista, what do you think about the "Megacity"? I know it's off-topic but it's always good to hear from fellow GTAers.

    I recommend YOU read the book "GET OUT BEFORE YOU GET IT". Leave this city, we don't like you. You have not contributed anything to society in your life, like a little parasite. So leach boy, go join your friends in GTA, and tell them how much it sucks here. We could use a few less GTAers around here.

    Downtown Toronto and anywhere near the lake is indeed that balmy. Spring was late @ my parent's house in Mississauga (western suburb for non-GTAers) and I think last hard frost was a week/10 days ago.
