Now, you may be saying,"Why shop in Toronto since I can order online?"
And you're spot on - you could. But why invest all your time seeking out the exact same specials we are providing for free?

Toronto is a wonderful, vivid and culturally unique city. In famous actor Peter Ustinov's oft-referenced line, "Toronto is a kind of New York, operated by the Swiss". Several years afterwards, when asked of this line, he answered, 'I've learned it's really run by the Canadians' - and in fact, Toronto is a banner for the multicultural tapestry that Canada claims to be. We have got probably the most diverse assortment of neighbourhoods you can find in Canada, where you could wander through Greektown and wind up in Little India before you've eaten your gyro, and then linger for authentic pho in Little Vietnam to complete the trip - all found within 20 minutes of one another (once you know the proper way).
This has given rise to a uniquely Torontonian perception of society, and that viewpoint influences anything we do, from our furniture stores to our graphic design agencies. Toronto is about synthesis without assimilation - not a megacity but a metacity, with our neighbourhoods at the heart of it all. This allows us bring together various practices and societies and fashions and viewpoints to build something truly unique, truly exceptional - something you can't find any place else in the world.
At Scopelocal, we can't get enough of Toronto and its local community traditions, and we do our best to help publicize them, their families, and the businesses that power them. So go on, buy local within your chosen part of town, and help contribute to making Toronto the lively and wonderful area that it is.
