Dundas & Mutual. East end dive bar, Mounties. Probably so named because RCMP HQ used to be around the corner on Jarvis where the Grand Hotel is now. Gentrification is slowly killing off Toronto's remaining dive bars and there are websites dedicated to rating and celebrating them when you want a really dirty night out.
