It is ironic how we have to turn to the "internet" to view the past and then wish we could turn the clock back and return when there was no such thing as the "internet".
Beam me back Scotty!
I was 22 in 1986. Ahhhh, to be 22 again. Had so much energy and ambition.
So you're 58?
I was 26!
I was in my prime when I lived in Toronto in the 1980s. I had "so much energy" - and my sex drive was so much HIGHER!
I came to live in Toronto in April 1986 and OH how i miss Yonge Street when it was like this! The open arcades were up and down the street and it was an incredible time for a young man just starting out and coming from the country side.
Toronto The Good!
The golden age of Ontario, thanks for posting .
Toronto in the Commodore-64 era. A great summer to turn thirteen years old.
i was 14 coming home from school watching the 20 minute workout...and two more ...that brunette with curly hair was my favorite...
She played Linda Hamilton's, (Sarah Connor's) room mate, Ginger in The Terminator. She was a hot one.
Bess Motta.
Always liked Harvey's burgers
Good old days gone forever.
Thanks for the memories
Back when it was safe to ride your bicycle from Mississauga to downtown as a kid.
Still is
Can someone please turn back the hands of time.
and then break the clock so we can't leave.
I was 15 when this was shot. So many memories of Toronto. Thanks for posting.
Likewise: it was an incredible time to be a teenager, and Toronto was so safe, clean, and vibrant.
So clean and white.
1:14 the gull is long gone, but he lived at the right time... so many great memories of Toronto back then as a kid, best time to experience it back then.
Today it seems like everyone is watching their screens, hard pass for me. Would do anything to go back in time to those days.
The gull is alive and well. Saw it the other day
Miss those carefree days hanging out on Yonge street and the Eaton centre. Now I’m married with kids...
I hear ya. lol I'm not laughing at you, it just reminded me of Al Bundy from Married with Children. Great show. I picked a bad time to quit drinking and smoking cigars :-(
Ahhhh ... downtown T.O. in the 80s! Remember Nuts & Bolts... ?
The head shops and arcades AND most of all, the Record stores!!
Yes
To really get to know downtown T.O. you gotta live there ... see it, breathe it, smell it, feel it. Worked at the TD Centre in the 80s ... had a condo at Yonge & College. Now that was fun!
Nutz and Bolts.....club Focus?
when Toronto was still "The Good"
Not gonna lie, this shit choked me up, but i didn't cry. Mama didn't raise no bitch!
Super 8, was like 280p quality. HUGE thumbs up for uploading this, you're a legend!
Nostalgia is powerful
Crying is fine, it's in you for a reason.
Holding it back, ehh, not so much.
When Mama passes away, you're not gonna cry?
I'm back...
6:42 for me, Cinesphere and Ontario Place were EVERY kid's dream.
So much fun there.
I spent all my summer holidays in Canada, London Ontario to be precise, however 1986 I spent the entire year there and experienced all the seasons, spending, half of 86 though I spent in Toronto and what a place back then so I can't imagine what it is like now,
Not the same at all, just keep those good memory's close to your heart, because all that of what you remember is long gone.
@@D33Lux really....that is a great shame, i know as you get older & wiser you start to see more of the not so nice side of life, but thought Toronto would hold onto some pleasantness
Just immigrants and homeless people now.
Thank you for sharing.
i love this. subscribing. I would love to see this done up in an HD frame by frame transfer.
Great footage!!
Toronto, and canada isnt the same w justin running the show
So clean. No immigrants.
Good stuff
the year i arrived in the city...all the way from northern sask...eyeLoveTO
Toronto looked so different back then!
Where are all the people and cars??? Today its bumper to bumper people and cars everywhere you go.
The infrastructure was and still is not set up to support the mass intake of immigration and constant flow of vehicles.
Great archive. Though @ 9:43 I read somewhere that when monkeys are confined in a small space for a long duration they have mental health issues and it's displayed by a rocking back and forth motion just like what this elephant is doing. Not sure if this is the same. But I presume the space need for a elephant would be enormous that no zoo can ever provide.
True, prisoners experience the same thing, they end up pacing in their cells. Most end up doing pushups or take up hobbies to distract from the wasted time.
2:41 I remember I used to always see the Good Year blimp.
Molson Fleet Street still there. Going to 5:47 in 1 hour. Heh. I remember the Lancaster at 7:55.
This is the Toronto I know. I don't like the Toronto of 2019. It doesn't feel like home to me.
, we treated it like we owned it.
It's funny people who lived in the 1950's said the same thing about Toronto in 1986. People will keep saying the same over and over again for decades about Toronto.
@@thefozzybear You're right. I went to Ryerson in the late '90s and I miss even the charm the downtown had even just back then. But for real, the Toronto of 25 years ago wasn't so so much different than the Toronto of 50 years ago. Now, it's completely different. Crazy expensive and packed with glass and concrete condos.
@@thefozzybearNo one is saying that about Toronto in 2024. Toronto was slowly dying by the end of the 90's.
This is 1986 but filmed with an 1960s camera
Yes, camcorders were the device of Choice by 1986 I didn't realize they were still making Super 8 movie film then.
I'm just here watching some old clips of Toronto from the year I was born in 1981 so far I reach here in 1986 next stop is 1987 videos
Hi, is there any way to get a hold of this footage? I'm a web series creator making a comedy set in 1980s Toronto and am looking for archival to use in the show!
Why Is There No Sound
Different film and camera were needed that were quite expensive.
ruclips.net/video/dZDjS0SyjnA/видео.html what is that place or was it? 3.59 in the video ..
Roy Thomson Hall
African Lion Safari. Sad.
Too many spongies now
it's weird to think that all these people are now DEAD!
It's 1986 bozo not 1886, most are probably still alive.
@@kenlompart9905 RIP Ken
@@jpatherton2415 Grow up moron, take a math class while you're at it.
@@kenlompart9905 Instead of being a hostile little brat why don't you set down your xbox and forget the meth for awhile and go out, get some fresh air and calm down a bit. Sounds like you need a hug!
1986? They're All Dead? Let me guess, Millennial right?
