7 h. ago There are 4 places in the GTA that cost more to live in than Toronto

When it comes to the cost of living in Canada, Toronto often takes the spotlight as one of the priciest places to call home. With its bustling downtown core, soaring condo prices, and ever-rising rent, it's no surprise many assume it tops the charts for affordability challenges, but this isn't quite the case. One would be forgiven for thinking that Toronto is the most expensive city in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), but other cities in the region regularly top the 416 in average cost of living. A recent MoneySense report reveals four cities that surpass Toronto among the most expensive places to live in the GTA, and a couple of them don't come as a huge surprise to anyone paying attention to regional home prices and the increase in living costs. Richmond HillAn aerial view of a residential street in Richmond Hill.

A Toronto bar with a cult following closed down last winter after 16 years, and it's finally been replaced.It's been eight months since cult-favourite Dundas West sports bar (and former home of Slammie Sammies), Opera Bob's, closed its doors after 16 years, much to the disappointment and dismay of its devoted regulars.The pub was a local staple for a casual drink, lively night out, and especially for Manchester City football match screenings, as the Manchester City Football Club Toronto has called the bar home for nearly as long as it's been around.Last year, during the Premier League championships, it even got a considerable shout-out from the New York Times.Alas, as Nelly Furtado once said, all good things come to an end, and, in the winter of 2024, the pub closed its doors for good, setting its devoted fanbase adrift, searching for somewhere new to take root.Now, at long last, the space has officially gotten a new lease on life, and Opera ...
