What are your interests?
Oh by the way, we're currently having a snowstorm with 25 cm accumulation :s Shopping - Eaton Centre (Yonge/Queen-Dundas) Ice Hockey - Hockey Hall of Fame (Yonge & Front St.) Basketball - Toronto Raptors (NBA) - check out Air Canada Centre schedule CN Tower - world's tallest freestanding structure Snow Skiing - a few ski hills just outside the city Pubs - EVERYWHERE Night Clubs - John/Richmond sts. Casa Loma - pales in comparison to what you have in the UK Science Centre Toronto Zoo Take a look at Toronto Member's profiles to give you an idea. Why February??

I've been 3 times and love the place. CN Tower is a must. Go and watch the Toronto Maple Leafs (although difficult to get a ticket at this late stage and they're crap at the moment, but I'll keep supporting them!). Drink Alexander Keiths IPA from Halifax NS, my favourite Canadian beer. Go to Hoops bar on Yong/Carlton. And the Duke of Gloucester. Enjoy!

It's now been snowing for 17 hours (since I last wrote) .... bring boots! Although it's supposed to go up to 6C on Wednesday and rain.
As noted above, Leaf tickets are hard to come by, so if you're interested check http://toronto.craigslist.ca/tor/tix/ found this just now, which seems like a great deal for this Tuesday.... http://toronto.craigslist.ca/tor/tix/560014218.html

Here's something else you will be in time to take advantage of ...... high end restaurants all over town opening their doors to all with set menues and reasonable prices until Feb 7. I've heard reservations are a necessity:
