Tourism in Toronto has not yet fully recovered from COVID-19, even with help from TIFF, according to expert.

Smith noted, however, the city just enjoyed TIFF, a Toronto Blue Jays game and the Terry Fox Run all in one weekend, and it was exciting to be downtown., with 74 restaurants making the inaugural Toronto selection, including one two-star restaurant, 12 one-star restaurants, 17 Bib Gourmand restaurants, and 44 recommended restaurants."When you add them on top of each another, it creates a lot of demand within the city.

"It was lively, it was a lot of excitement, a huge amount of celebrities came back to town, a lot of parties, a lot of dinners, a lot of before and after shows. Really, it was the best ever. It was a great comeback for us and for the city," Khabouth said. In a Aug. 10, 2022 news release, the federal government said TIFF brings more than 700,000 visitors to Toronto and accounts for more than $114 million in economic activity in the region.

Have u going through the border to see how people is treated?... That's the reason.

Have you checked hotel prices?

How about being realistic and actually practice journalism. It’s not a mystery why. Stop coddling the ones who have made the decisions leading to the problem

Tiff is useless and shouldn't happen.

Because of arrivecan

Maybe because everyone is getting killed It’s the mayor’s job to keep the city safe to promote tourism. All we have is gang violence and guns shooting off every 5 minutes with a stabbing every 19 minutes. So yah , that’s why !

Hotels in Markham are almost $300/night. How many hotels in the city are housing homeless people? The demand is there, the supply isn't.

News flash: The pandemic is not over.

DefundTheCBC

Yeah let's all go to the hot bed of Covid-19 Wahoo and potentially get shot and stabbed while I'm there. I'm with tourism in my town. We have not seen a tourism boom even before covid like this before. So busy.

Probably because you need the useless vaccine to enter

Well they should start lowering the cost of the hotels. Cause the prices are ridiculous.

Tourism will be healthy when people are healthy. Good luck with that while covid still rages, I guess.

Um NO, all the films are made by the woke people, and nobody wants to see them.

Your Health Canada Head Dr Kochar is a veterinarian! Degrees in animal health. I guess humans are animals. Trudeau is so messed up busy playing blackface and singing in hotel lobbies. 😂😂😂

Hey geniuses, the 'I' in TIFF stands for International. Maybe if Sock Boy would get out of people's lives they would be traveling to this sit hole country again. Do what your jobs are supposed to be not what turdoh wants you to do. TrudeauMustGo

Thank the Ontario science table and Trudeau for the slow recovery!!! Many fly into the country for TIFF however with ridiculous Covid-19 restrictions at borders and ArriveCan Canada has become a no fly zone for tourists

Tell Justin to end the mandates!! TrudeauMustGo

ArriveCAN
