So right now i have the oportunity to travel...and i narrow it to two cities: london and toronto (is for a thing to learn english on foreing countries), and in a touristic perspective which one is better¿ (im not much of a museum person xD)
and also that in the GLBT perpective toronto has a gay village or something like that but... i havent found anything very interesting :S (=D i would go to woodyyys ^^ qaf rocks!) and also london :S as i see it is a very "grown up" city :S, so do u have any ideas on both?

mcrteenagers · 20th Feb 2009, 07:28 PM

London, Ontario?

Toronto is a great place, multicultural in its roots, and a very open, accepting city. There's alot of stuff to do, in the way of clubs, groups. Definitely alot of gay people (young and old) in the city. It's a big city, hop skip and a jump to other major cities and the USA.

jazzrawr · 20th Feb 2009, 07:30 PM

Toronto is awesome.
Although so is London, if you're meaning London, England.
I live near Toronto, and I loooove going there. There's lots to do, and a very open, accepting city in whole. I've heard it's got a good gay community too, considering Toronto Pride is so enormous.

Ralphtruco · 20th Feb 2009, 08:07 PM

What?! theres another london xDD? (sorry if it is a VEEEERY stupid question)
waaah i just cant decide =_= both are awesome
the only problem i have is that the visa tramits are easier for going to canada (my stupid as*hole president kicked the ... um i dont know the word for that in english... thing of.. um consul... uk here)

BlakeHarmony · 20th Feb 2009, 08:14 PM

Where are you from?
Since I guess you are talking about London, Ontario, I would personally go with Toronto but that is just me. You know what you like, I know what I like, what you like and what I like might be very different so I would do some research. Figure out which one has more of the stuff you like, or less of the stuff you don't.

Ralphtruco · 20th Feb 2009, 08:15 PM

no xD im talkin about London, England xD the UK

OneHatMadder · 20th Feb 2009, 08:20 PM

Go for London.

London is an amazing city. I would choose London over Toronto every time.

BlakeHarmony · 20th Feb 2009, 08:24 PM

Oh, you were talking about how Canadian visas were easier to get so I figured you'd be talking about London Ontario.
If it's London England, I would definitely go there, but I haven't been there yet and I have been to Toronto quite a few times... Again, I would research it.

Ralphtruco · 20th Feb 2009, 08:26 PM

yeah i have been doing that T_T but i jus cant decideeeee T_T

Apocalypte · 21st Feb 2009, 05:20 AM

+1 for London - fantastic gay scene (though you're too young for the nightclubs) and an all-round great city with loads to see and do.

riddlerno1 · 21st Feb 2009, 05:47 AM

I would say London!! Only cos i live here and never been to Toronto. It is a fantastic city for the gay scene. Soho is amazing. Also have a couple of pride events coming up in the summer.

TheRoof · 21st Feb 2009, 07:34 AM

London. Toronto's okay too, but London really is much better, in my opinion.

littledinosaurs · 21st Feb 2009, 07:38 AM

I think you should go for London only because its usually easier to go to Toronto so you can go there later in life.

Crackajack · 21st Feb 2009, 07:49 AM

London, England, Mearly because it has Harods = Awsome stuff like 24 carot gold necklaces etc and expensive stuff :P

Mana · 21st Feb 2009, 07:53 AM

London!!

Because it is better than other places.

Mum: You're lucky, we live quite close to London really
Me: Why can't we ever go there then?

Ralphtruco · 21st Feb 2009, 11:16 AM

yeeaaaah too bad im only 16 -.-" altough probably when im 18 itl be imposible to get ouf of this country *sighs*, so the consensuns so far is london, england right xD?

kaster · 21st Feb 2009, 11:40 AM

I'd go for Toronto! Canada is better than England hands downnn. Really, london is brilliant, but.... I'd swao it for toronto any day!

kayar · 21st Feb 2009, 02:25 PM

Hi Ralphtruco, I'm interested to know more about how your President kicked out the UK Ambassador (Consul). What country are you from if you don't mind me asking you? I'm from the UK and I applaud anyone who kicks out our stuffy politicians. I wish we could kick out Prime Minister Gordon Brown! Can you tell me how it's done! LOL.
