- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- A 4K downtown Toronto Night walk that starts by walking north up Yonge Street Dundas Street. At Dundas Square I turn west and walk along Dundas through Little Tokyo and Chinatown. I then turn south on Spadina Avenue and head past Queen Street and into the entertainment district. From there it's past a number of patios on Adelaide, John and Richmond Street's before finding my way to St Andrew Station. The street's were still quiet thanks to only being on Stage 2 of the coronavirus pandemic but it was still great to see people out and enjoying the city. This was recorded on Friday, July 17 at 8:55 pm. The temperature was 27 degrees Celsius.
0:01 - North on Yonge Street
5:30 - Dundas Square

The last few posts have blown my mind. I live here. Freaky. Nice to see it from a different lens
Thanks Todd, much appreciated and it's always good to see things from a different perspective. I'd love to hear what others who live here to have to say.
First of all, love the site. And the commentaries are awesome. I believe Chinatown did not start down in Spadina area or behind city hall. I believe it was a spill off of the original Chinatown which is Broadview Ave. After a strong influx of Chinese into Broadview they moved to what is now Chinatown. Thank you for also talking about stage 1, 2 and 3 and what to expect. We just have soft encouragements not any lockdowns.
***I am so sad few people are wearing masks.
Keep going for us from Toronto growing up around the time you grew up it is just amazing to see all the changes. Hope you keep exploring Toronto. And your commentary is amazing and thank you for giving a loonie to people down on their luck. Believe it or not the homeless now have donation apps to receive a donation for people like you who want to give a small bit of change in digital form.
We have the same problem with bikes on the sidewalks. But our bike theft is taken more seriously here in Japan.
Oh, the Spadina shuffle song is by the SHUFFLE DEMONS. ruclips.net/video/KZnLjRi_g9o/видео.html
This makes me happy of my walks through Toronto are still full of people.
I might have to put up more of my Toronto with people videos.

Thank you so much for these new videos.
LIFE ISNT EASY .... I don't want to force anything on yall but man I've had so many problems and the only true way to come out of them victorious is thru the Lord God Almighty... I know society makes everyone think being religious is for deluded people but please open your eyes it's not.. I plead to yall just say a prayer to God commit all your worries fears, regrets and deepest problems into his hands.. read the bible and keep praying to him in Jesus Name .. I promise you your life will change for the better I promise you
I was pondering on suicide, I wanted to run away from home but I prayed to the Lord God and all of a sudden ..things started moving forward in my life.. I've done so many evil things in my past.. things that i think any other person would kill me for if they were God but God kept me alive and well
I dont want to be seen as the deluded guy in the comment section but I'm literally pouring my heart out
I thought my sins were too bad and that I will never succeed in my dreams.. but I forgot that in John 3:16 it says "For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life"
Believe that Jesus died on the cross for all of our sins to be forgiven and to give us eternal life in heaven
You may think I'm crazy but I'm begging just try this read the bible pray and watch yourself rise to heights you never expected
Dont fall into the tricks of the world I'm begging
I apologise for this being too long
Imma try and send this out to loads of comments sections.. I hope this touched your soul.. if it did please like the message and comment let's make it togetherrr
Thanks
@@briannk3720 nah man dont believe in jesus you have to believe in big corporations they are the way forward. Listen to microsoft, apple, j&j, jp morgan, toyota, samsung etc
I lived in Toronto for about 11 months a year ago. Although I am in Korea now, I miss this city so much. I miss the Canadians who were kind to me. I especially miss the wood ave hair salon lady who cut my hair and the lady who always paid for me at the mart. I want to go as soon as possible once the Corona virus is gone. I love Canada.
That's great to hear and I can see by your youtube logo you really like the city :) I lived in Korea (Seoul) for 5 years and I absolutely love your country. So be happy that you are still in an amazing place and Toronto will be ready to welcome you back with open arms should you return. Thanks for watching the videos!
Johnny Strides Wow Unbelievable !! If I go to Toronto, please I hope to meet you in Toronto.
Don’t have a good day, have a great day Thank you so much.😉

Thank you NaHyeon :) I will try to do a new one each day!
North Korea?
You missed the guy that keeps shouting “BELIEVE!” at random people...low key a Toronto icon.
I've featured him in a few videos before and even ran into him in the Eaton Centre food court!
Haha you brought back a memory for me, he used to scare the beejazuz out of me
he reminds me of my student life in Ryerson❤
Jesus,JESUS,Jesus love that Guy awesome Dude
LOOOOOOOOOL man that guy killed me 😂😂😂
I'm watching this just because I dream of living here when I go off to school, but imagine how people will see this. 100 or even 50 years from now.
I live in Toronto Canada I love it their the people are so kind the restaurants are amazing the neighborhoods are amazing I just love Canada
lived there 1994-2000 wow... so much change.. thanks for making this videos.. some stores have been there since my time...amazing..
This was very enjoyable and like a casual evening stroll with a friend
I played junior hockey outside toronto for two years. It was one of the best cities that I’ve ever been to. The people, the architecture, the arts. Some of my best friends today are from Toronto.
That's amazing, glad you have such fond memories of the city and its people!
Johnny Strides thanks dude ! Great videos
I came for the walk but stayed for the narration, it was informative and interesting. Good job
Thank you!
thank you very much sir i watched all no skip i am moving to Canada Toronto very soon and showed me a lot thanks I really enjoyed the video best part Is you are talking to us while walking and explaining as much as possible
Toronto was my first place outside Brazil (2004). Always a good memory. Thanks for sharing your walk with us!!
I am a great follower of Sir Johnny Strides and like and amazed of all his videos. I also live here in downtown Toronto.
I love my city. Walking on Yonge street is one of my favourite pastimes.
It truly never gets boring!
The street looks pretty run down.
@@rtgtx Nah It's just the lack of sunlight because of skyscrapers (it's a North-South street). When you get farther North in Midtown, it starts to seem better.
I used to do the same walk when I got bored studying at Ryerson...been missing it since we’ve had to stay indoors. Thanks for posting this up, stay healthy and all the best.
Watched this video for the first time. Taking walks through T.O. is one thing but the narrative is like getting glasses.
Spent almost 4years in Toronto, one of the safest city in the world for sure. Great video man!
Sadly it was past
@@ipat2784 Too many immigrants.
@@ipat2784 lol no it’s current. Crime has gone down in the last 20 years.
like a combination of Boston and New York. I like it
But way cleaner than both lol
@@jonathan_kim Boston isn’t too bad. New York is just disgusting
ruclips.net/video/Kf7muBcKbhw/видео.html ...
@@jonathan_kim Not at all. This actually looks like shadier regions of New York.
My guy, your camera quality is frigging amazing, holy shit... feels like I’m there! Amazing work man, I lived up there in 2016-2019
I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS BEAUTIFUL CITY TORONTO I LOVE CANADA 🇨🇦 SHOUT OUT FROM LAKE CHARLES LOUISIANA 😎✌😀
I saw the entire video, cant believe it,
I really enjoyed it, like if I were there walking down those streets
thanks for the ride! amazing city
Amazing knowledge of the city. Thanks for this. I'm sharing it with a lot of friends who have never been to TO.
Thank you David and that's awesome, much appreciated!
Well done Johnny. I watch your videos and I love them very much, especially because of the narratives. It gives a lively feel to the images you capture of your surroundings.Toronto is a beautiful city, I love it !!
this guys voice sounds so peaceful. could fall asleep listening to him.
Great video!!! Brings a lot of good memories while I hv lived in Toronto for almost 8 years.
I had been in Toroto 10years ago. Wow its so nostalgic..... Now Iam in JAPAN
Lived in Toronto for 5 years. Gosh I miss that vibrant city
Is it better than London? Also is it easy for migrats to get jobs?
Sean there’s a lot of job opputunities for immigrants. It’s huge and vibrant and there’s always a place for everyone. You can find your niche here.
@@Sean-fg9rq where are u from
I love this! So nice to be able to still see the City through your eyes while still @ home ,😀 thank you for the tour and educational info.
Thanks Nikki, much appreciated! 👍
Thanks, hello pretty lady how are you doing today
Hello sweet nikki💗
Hello how are you doing
Cool to just walk around the city, soak up the atmosphere!
Thank you for this video ❤️ its like i am there dream country 😢 😭 🇨🇦 so beautiful
Wow this is so nostalgic and very special experience. Thanks for refreshing my old sweet memories associated with this beautiful vibrant city, few years ago. It was like a time travel when you walked through these streets, imagining myself, recollecting the lovely city and warm people there. Hope to return there some day again. Thank you so much Johnny Strides.
Dear Johnny, my moms lives in Kazakhstan, she's only ever travelled to Canada ones & to US once. She watches your vides and they make her SOOOO happy. She has a tough life over there, and this is a lovely relief she gets after work. She talks about your videos of Toronto almost every time we zoom. Thank you, keep doing awesome job!
Thank you and tell her I say hi and thanks for watching~!

Thank you
*Really nice bikes.*
:-)
Thanks, Those bikes were really cool.
Thanks sir I owe you valuable time.
🌟Great tour with local guide!💥🍁🌟Thanks for sharing!
Toronto is like a cleaner, more slick looking NYC that downtown could even pass for Times Square, I do know Toronto has been used as a stand in for NYC in many films and TV shows.
indeed it has, it's very common to be watching a movie and spot Toronto in it!
Sorry, but no. Toronto in this video did not look much cleaner than what you typically see in NYC/Manhattan.
Hello pretty lady how are you doing today ♥️
Greetings from the U.K. Great video.
Hi from walking in Russia. Another Great new walking video. I like it, lovely places. Thank u for sharing friend! 👍
Thank you for that. In the late 70s I worked at Dundas & Yonge area. There was a Sears MOB building a block down. A great Buffet place across the street. I danced on weekends at Momma G's on Yonge a few doors down from Hard Rock Cafe. Good times!
this video is so cool! I used to live in Toronto in 2014 and watching this video brings me back so many memories!
Did you edit the footage in post? Is it taken all auto?
New City Hall?! New in 1965! But I get it. Old City Hall is across the street from it. Interesting to see changes since I left Toronto in 2008. Can't believe that beauty supply place is still at Bay and Dundas. Been there forever.
Beautiful and Stunning scenery.💕💕💕
it's always lovely to walk with you my friend. 👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing . happy weekend.🌼🌼🌼
It's a beautifil city! Hope to be there visiting !
looks very beautiful and peaceful city..
The good old days, before Covid came around. Can't wait to visit Toronto again!
Covid showed up in 2019 and is still here today, but before Covid showed up it was great.
I hope Covid goes away soon and for good.
well made video to document the times
I lived in Toronto in the early 80s. Feels the same.
@ashiqur rahumanyou should go to embassy to Canada in sirilanka ask him about tike Visa to Canada I think it's easy for you try don't give up my friend good luck
An amazing and very beautiful ❤️😻 City. Toronto's people are always very beautiful, kind and always ready to help.
A blessed City with happiness.
All the best warm wishes for Toronto and GTA 💕.
There are many good things about things Toronto. But having lived there for 16 years, I would hardly call it beautiful, although it does have its moments.
It depends which type of beauty you looking for? I Respect comments and feeling .
thank you,it was a helpful videofor those who are coming to Toronto
Nice mam
nice channel and nice camera, i want start somethink similar with this channel, can i ask you how much is the rpm of the channel?
I moved away from Toronto over 3 years ago, but I still have an intimate recognition of those streets. Thanks for the video; felt like I was back walking around myself!
I REMEMBER YOU ! I SEEN YOU JUST OVER 3 YEARS AGO !! WHATS UP/
Hey Nancy
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
where did you go?
I love your videos, they make me feel like living in toronto
Being away for 3 yrs. Feels like yesterday. I miss this place.
Thank you for introducing me to Spadina Bus! I'm usually an annual visitor to Toronto. I love this city and your videos have me longing to get back there.
Thanks for the narration, it makes it even more interesting for those who have never been to Toronto... It would be great to have another narrated one during winter ;)
They're mostly narrated from now on :)
Exaaaccttllyyy!! 🤣😩
Your videos are Soo satisfying and interesting. I love your videos they're awesome and place.. Toronto is Soo beautiful.
Thank you, much appreciated and there will be a lot more videos on the way!
Sure morev
We have a Village Idiot in Cape Town too! I really enjoyed this video. Narrated is so much better than not. And you're very knowledgeable. Thanks!
Awesome! Thanks for walking Tour about Toronto💖
First time I saw this, good view , nice province
It is :)
I lived in Toronto about……..30 years ago for 10 years. Watching your video brings back good old memory. Always wanted to visit again. Hopefully before I die. 😀
Come back soon!
Can’t wait stroll the streets next year when I get there
Me toooo!
Hello sweet marina💚
I moved away from Toronto 3 years ago. Now I live off grid.. totally different life. I love it. But when I miss T.O I watch your vids to get my fill..thanks buddy!
Toronto is a fine looking city...Hello from San Francisco California 🏜🏖🏞⛰🌋🗻⛲⛩🌁🌃🏙🌉🌅🌄
Great Channel! These will be awesome to watch again years from now.
Thank you! I hope so :)
Hey Godfrey
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
Love the City, thanks for sharing ❤️
You're welcome!
Parts of Dundas, reminds me of Times Sq., except with the crowds of ppl. But in the summer of 2020, it probably looked like this. Few ppl walking around. Love the cable cars.
I worked on Bay Street from 1995 till Dec. 2019 and during that time I never saw Yonge Street that empty. Even on nights when I left the office at 1 am the sidewalks would be crowded in the summer. Haven't been downtown since the flu outbreak.
Thanks for your sharing.
Canada is a country so beautiful... I. Love it 💃
👍👍👍 Are you in Vietnam? I love that country :)
Isn’t it too cold? Was considering moving
@@Sean-fg9rq If you’re OK with the weather in Chicago, Detroit or New York, you’ll be fine. Believe me it doesn’t drop 50 degrees as you cross the border.
Im from Finland My grandma lives in Toronto i was there in 2018 great city!! 🇨🇦👍
Perfect angles and great quality wow concept
Spadina Bus is by the Shuffle Demons. Remember seeing them at the Horseshoe Tavern (just to your left when you stop at Spadina and Queen in case it's no longer there). Beautiful light as the sun sets. Love seeing this summer night video on a cool "winter" night down here.
@Nino Brown Good to hear.
why am i watching this lol? i literally live here
Hello
love city walks... first time seeing Toronto....
Hello miss IAM Hassan From Morocco In these countries someone who is pratical and serious should be present and does not want problems He just wants to live work and maryy and wants good for everyone
❤
you know what is blowing my mind, is how clean Toronto is, wow, i am held C hostage in Winnipeg and wow it is dirty in the downtown area.
WOW! Lovely city. Maybe, one day will see that in person.
Thank you so much for making this video and narrating. I'm so nervous living in America right now. Everything is so tense. Right now I'm in school for nursing and apparently Canada has a program to let American nurses work in Canada, so I would love to live there one day!
You're welcome and I hope everything works out for you down there!
Hey buddy
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
Hello
I hope you come up here to Canada. We want nurses here for sure. You will love it. My friend recently moved back from the USA after being a nurse in the states for 10 years. She went through a lot and is happy to be back.
Hello how are you doing
Many a great nights around Peter and Adelaide, Fri and Sat night. Great video.
Omg. I didn't expext to see this street again. I had worked in a Ramen restaurant on Dundas W for 8 months in 2013 Jan~Aug. It was your left side. Thanks to my super kind boss, teammates and Toronto Citizen, I was so happy and enjoyed Toronto life. Most of people who I met on street and store had tried to help my demands kindly. Hope to walk Dundas W again. Thank you for watching this video.
Hy! I’m from Nigeria, i’m planning on moving to canada soon.. i love this video, it’s encouraging. Thanks so much
Greeting. I am from Croatia and I really like Canada. I would love to live and work in Canada, and especially in Toronto. I hope that my dream will come true soon.
Are you Is a women?
Better stay in Croatia. You guys have great weather and a simple way of life. Come to Canada is you want processed and imported foods, come to Canada where you and your husband will have to work full-time if you want to have a comfortable life. For a visit, okay, but meet and talk with the Croatians, Serbians, Polaks, or Albanians who know a thing-or-two about these lands.
Jeboti!!! This is not a place to be for long. We do have chevapi
@@sm3675 Actually a good point, if you want to live in a house. If you are okay with living in a condo or apartment, you will be fine.
Canada is great to visit but from my experience living here and in Toronto it is very expensive to live, work a lot of hours, very long and cold winters about 8-10 months of the year is cold and gets very boring after a couple of weeks.
Brilliant virtual tour
you made me reminiscing of the days when MuchMusic was a thing. Speakers corner, oh my God; what happened to those days.
I used to hang out at electric circus and was on once. Yup those days were cool.
Thanks for this wonderful journey..
Absolutely gorgeous the Canadian city so wonderful very clean 🇨🇦👍♥️
It is! 👍
this video is gonna be gold in the future just like the 1900's video
I’m going to Toronto next week yaayyy it’s been a while since a year ago! Look forward to it!
So exciting!!! For me it’s three months !!
Cool video, people will watch this on youtube 20 years from now, like we see walk throughs in NY from 1980, at least I watched them!
I hope so! There's a channel called my night walk that has Toronto night walk videos from way back when on it (and he made a few new ones using my night walks:)
Great tour. I'm surprised you didn't mention the famous MASSEY HALL that was located on Shuter just off of Yonge St.
I've talked about it plenty of times in other vids :)
That was located? It still is.
Love your videos! Gives me lots of perspective for when I travel to Toronto.
Thank you, much appreciated!
These kind of videos has stolen my free time in quarantine. First time I see one narrated, and adds so much to the experiece. Now adddicted to your channel bc im a brazilian who dreams in move to Canada.
Cheers, Johnny!
hi dear Johnny
I know this video is from a long time ago but hopefully, you check my comments and guide me
as I saw you mentioned a recorded video with DJI Osmo Pocket, but if like to ask you it was Combo or the standard one? and my second question is did you use the microphone of Ozmo or add a microphone else meanwhile you have been recording?
Thanks in advance
I don't have the combo and I always, ALWAYS use an external microphone, cheers!
Commenting from Philippines but a Toronto resident who's stayed in the Philippines longer than expected because of the pandemic. I miss Toronto and I'm sad to have missed a Toronto Summer, but seems like it probably didn't feel the same this year.
Loved you video bro, always wished to visit downtown Toronto, almost finalised to visit this summer, but covid19 changed our plans. Thanks for the video, it made lived our dream. Keep making more videos of Toronto, looking forward for it👍🏻😊
Hello from eastern Europe , 🇹🇷Turkey
Turkey isn't part of Europe my dude.
@@iReturnV1deotapes 4 Northwestern Turkish cities and half of Istanbul is part of European Continent. Aside from governments, people of Eastern Europe such as Bulgarians, Turks, Macedonians, Bosnians and Albanians have quite similar culture.
