Toronto is one of the few cities that have a choice of stores; from
what I have gathered there are not many hobbyist-oriented or even
hobbyist-friendly electronic parts stores across Canada.

It's been a while since I've wandered through Active Surplus...(Queen
Street West)

Not being in a major urban area I simply rely on mail order (Digikey,
Mouser, Jameco, Electro Sonic, and Active) for components.
