I admit, I am very guilt of this.

We do complain a lot and in some cases, are fully justified in doing so.
anyone who lives here would complain, puny transit, few express ways, no casinos, 10pm is the latest you can buy beer, ugly buildings, city council always cancelling large beautiful buildings, I could go on all day.
Yes, in my opinion, some Torontonians complain too much, or think Toronto is worse than it is.
I love this city, I wouldn't be living here if I didn't. It's a great city, I've had a great time.
If someone really doesn't enjoy living here.. I don't know why they would stay and complain all the time.

Here we go...So why are you here?
That will happen when you spend half your day on transit or in the car commuting.Yes, in my opinion, some Torontonians complain too much, or think Toronto is worse than it is.

Torontonians really need to learn to appreciate this city. It's without doubt one of the greatest cities in the world.
Anyways my complaints about the city
- Transit
- Too much good food in this city. There are so many restaurants I want to visit and my wallet can't deal with it.
- Banal architecture
- Mayor Bumbaclot and the people who support him (colloquially referred to as 'Bumbaclot Nation')
- Maintaining roads and transit infrastructure in a state of good repair. Seriously, please raise the f*ck out of my taxes to pay for it. Ughhh..
- Too much construction
- Too little construction. Build baby build
-Waterfront
- Ontario
-Torontonians who won't stop complaining about the single greatest city in the world. Seriously, shut your mouth. You're lucky to live in such a safe, clean, dynamic and prosperous metropolitan.
That happens in any big city. In small town Ontario though there is no traffic and housing is much much cheaper than Toronto.

Not to this degree. Seems Los Angeles and Toronto are okay with 2+ hour commutes, given the fact they land on all those lists all the time. But that's my only real complaint FWIW.
Transit: maybe I'm the only one: but I haven't had any major problems using the TTC. I've had a few incidents like delays over the last few years but they weren't huge problems. Overall it's been a good experience for me personally using the subway
