Toronto Basics

• The most heavily populated city in Canada,
  Toronto is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city the
  country's financial, commercial and cultural
  centre with a rich multi-cultural heritage of
  more than 80 ethnic groups, speaking more than
  100 languages. It has a lively stock exchange,
  soaring futuristic architecture, museums, art
  galleries, performing arts companies, fine
  restaurants, large shopping complexes, a
  waterfront and hundreds of parks.
• Time Canada covers six time zones, from GMT 8 in
  the west to GMT -3.5 in the east.
• Electricity Electrical current is 110 volts,
  60Hz. American style flat two-pin plugs and one
  with a third round grounding pin are standard.
• Money The currency used is the Canadian Dollar
  (CAD), which is divided into 100 cents.
  One-dollar coins are also known as loonies (due
  to the picture of a loon, a type of bird, on the
  coin), and two-dollar coins as toonies. Banks and
  bureaux de change will change money and
  travellers cheques, as will some hotels, but the
  rate will not be as good. Major credit cards are
  widely accepted and ATMs are plentiful. US
  Dollars are largely accepted, though due to
  fraud, larger notes might not be and change is
  usually given in Canadian dollars.
• Language The official languages are English and
  French (predominantly in Quebec).
• Tipping There is no service charge added to
  restaurant bills in Canada and staff expect a tip
  of around 15. Hairdressers and taxi drivers are
  also usually tipped at the same rate, while
  bellhops, doormen, porters and similar service
  providers at hotels, airports and stations are
  generally paid 1 per item of luggage carried.
  Tour guides and bus drivers should generally
  receive 3-5 per day. It has become more common
  for places with counter service to display 'tip
  jars', but in such cases tipping is not
  necessary.
• Communications The international access code for
  Canada is 1. The outgoing code is 011 followed
  by the relevant country code (e.g. 01144 for the
  United Kingdom) the outgoing code is not
  necessary for calls to the US and the Caribbean.
  The area code for Ottawa is (1)613, and (1)416
  for Toronto. Internet cafes are widely available.
  Most international mobile phone companies have
  roaming agreements with Canadian operators,
  however it may be cheaper to buy a pay-as-you-go
  SIM card if visiting the country for long
  periods.
• Climate The climate in Toronto is moderated by
  its proximity to the Great Lakes (in particular
  Lake Ontario). Summer tends to be hot and very
  humid, while winter is severe with heavy
  snowfall. The average maximum temperature in
  January is 28F (-2 C), while the average maximum
  temperature in July is 80F (27C). Rainfall tends
  to occur throughout the year, but summer, though
  the sunniest season, is also usually the wettest.
  Autumn is perhaps the best time to travel to
  Toronto, as temperatures are less extreme than
  summer or winter, with mild days and cool nights.
