Can Make You Happier

In partnership with Tourism Toronto, here are five ways a trip to Toronto can spark your curiosity and bring you happiness.

On top of being the largest and most visited city in Canada, Toronto also has a reputation for being one of the most multicultural cities in the world. Best of all, you can enjoy all of its diverse, global character without the jet lag since Toronto is always just a short flight away. Whether you’re crawling between Little Italy and Little India or anywhere in between, you can see firsthand how different cultures are welcomed and work together.

Toronto proudly puts the sum of its parts on display for all to see. If your curiosity has you yearning for more stamps on your passport, Toronto is the premiere destination. Name a country you’ve always wanted to visit and we can guarantee there’s a specific neighbourhood that celebrates its culture.

Be A Part of Something

Sports tourism is now almost a $7 billion industry annually, with places rich in history like The Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto declared a must-see. Toronto is the center for sports in Canada with most of the country’s professional teams being located there. The Raptors, Canada’s only NBA team, recently won the 2019 Championship and in the pavilion outside the arena playfully named ‘Jurassic Park’, fans gathered in the tens of thousands to watch the games. This experience was duplicated across Canada as Jurassic Parks popped up in more than 37 cities allowing fans from all over to unite in celebration. Opposing players and media alike remarked that they had never seen or felt anything like this.

Toronto is not just the hub for sports in Canada, it is home to some of “Canada’s Teams”, meaning that when they win, a whole nation rises to its feet.

Arts

Embrace the Fine

You tend to get the sense of a city through its art— and Toronto is home to the country’s largest, as well as most diverse, galleries.

The Indigenous Collection housed at the Art Gallery of Ontario, one of North America’s most distinguished galleries, includes breathtaking works from the First Peoples of North America, namely First Nations, Inuit, and Metis. Manasie Akpaliapik's large ivory sculpture is one of the most popular pieces on display.

For minds that are curious for something more modern, the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) invites you to marvel at Slovenian artist Apolonija Sustersic’s light therapy room as part of its exploration of the role galleries play in supporting well-being.

Music

Revel in

Toronto is a place where you can find entertainment around every corner. The biggest names in music stop here and pack large venues including the picturesque outdoor Budweiser Stage at Echo Beach. Equally, you can also check out up-and-coming bands in a smaller club before they break big during the city-wide NXNE Festival.

Whatever your preferred genre is, there’s a variety of live shows on any given night that will blow you away. You can rock out to a punk band at the Horseshoe Tavern, dance to live salsa music at Lula Lounge, enjoy some smooth jazz at the Rex or sway to country music at Owl’s Club.

Push Your

Nothing expands our consciousness and encourages growth more than challenging our perceived limits. One sure-fire way to step outside of your comfort zone is to step outside and onto what the Guinness Book of World Records calls the "World's Highest External Walk on a Building". Toronto’s greatest icon, and the hero of any skyline photo, is the CN Tower. While people immediately recognize the tower, many don’t know that visitors can experience life on the edge with EdgeWalk, a full circle, hands-free walk on a five-foot-wide ledge encircling the top of the Tower's main pod...116 stories above the ground!

In a crowded marketplace, you need a clear mission statement for your company’s year one. Whether you’re serving up a juicy plant-based burger or a time-saving delivery app, you want your customers to know why you exist, and why you’re better.

Network offline:

Fatima – CEO/Founder of Quill

Social media and digital retail have made the world more accessible to us all, but don’t forget the power of a personal connection. Putting a face to a name at in-person networking events or setting up a meet-and-greet with prospective customers can build bonds more than just a few lines of text.

“It’s almost the razors edge philosophy where you only need to be a sliver better than anybody else in your field and then all of a sudden you’re the best,” Toronto restaurateur Rob Gentile explains of the drive needed to become a total tastemaker. “The food has to be delicious, hospitable, warm and welcoming, and the most important thing is you need to create memorable experiences with your guests so they can’t stop talking about how amazing your restaurant is.”

No business is perfect straight out of the gate, and it’s quite possible a customer will send a cutting remark your way while you’re figuring everything out. The key is to never take it personally. Just take the hit for what it is, and use it as a learning moment.

Accept criticism:

Fatima – CEO/Founder of Quill

Small businesses are always looking for ways to cut down on costs without sacrificing the quality of their service. For Chef Gentile, this meant updating his line of Buca restaurants’ websites to partner with an extremely efficient, and more affordable reservation-making platform than the one they’d previously relied on. Shaking up the routine with this tech-based solution drastically reduced their annual overhead.

Businesses need to invest to grow, and there may be no better proof of this than by choosing the right business-minded credit card. Take the TD Business Cash Back Visa, for instance, which offers 2% in Cash Back dollars on eligible office expenses, gas purchases, and even on recurring bill payment plans through your account. If you’re carrying a balance, TD Business Select Rate Visa offers the choice between two affordable fixed rates; 11.99% with no annual fee or 8.99% with a $49 annual fee, giving you more freedom as you pay off those business expenses. Either way you look at it, both of TD’s new credit cards are built to work as hard for your business as you do.

“We live in a digital world where most of us can run a business from our living room without having to interact with the outside world thanks to paid digital, and search engine optimization,” says Fatima Zaidi, founder of podcast networking platform Quill. “However, offline tactics have the power of forming stronger relationships and I have built my entire network one handshake at a time.”

“I think as a society we are taught that receiving negative feedback and criticism is a bad thing,” Zaidi says, adding how bad reviews actually challenge you to better your brand. “It's better that someone hates your work than doesn’t react at all. If you don't get at least one negative reaction to what you're doing, you’re probably not pushing your creative boundaries enough.”

“In the past there may have only been one reservation platform we could use, and as a result our rates were quite high, spending thousands of dollars a month for a particular platform. We have been able to save over $100,000 a year alone by just making a switch to new technology that also in return helps us to run our business more efficiently.”
