TLTV Ep 113 - Path To The Airport

Along the Etobicoke Creek is a little-known path that leads to Pearson International Airport, Canada's largest airport. It's hard to believe that such a massive airport could be right next to such a nice tree-covered path, but it's there. You can walk right up to the airport's fence and watch airplanes take off right over you. At this point in the year, the path is lined with tons of purple flowers. Check it out...

TLTV Ep 111 - Toronto Fashion Week

Fashion Week took place in Toronto recently. Simply put, it blew us away! It is a completely different experience being in attendance at a runway show than seeing it on tv. The atmosphere in the room can be downright electric, and it makes for some incredible videography. In addition to filming many runway shows we also interviewed a great designer backstage and interviewed numerous interesting people we met at the show. The full videos of these shows and interviews can be found on the YouT ...

TLTV Ep 107 - Cheltenham Badlands

Looking distinctly like Martian topography, the Cheltenam Badlands are a bizarre and extremely rare geographical spectacle that lie hidden in the Caledon Hills.  The cause of this phenomenon was poor farming practices and overgrazing in the 1930’s that lead to soil erosion and exposed the underlying shale. This site is now an Earth Science Area of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSI) and is part of the local UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.  ...

From 1890 to 1980, the Don Valley Brickworks was one of Canada's pre-eminent brickyards.  At its peak more than 43 million bricks a year were manufactured for use in the construction of homes and buildings across Canada.  Many of Toronto’s most prominent buildings were made from Don Valley brick – Massey Hall and Old City Hall are two examples.  In the late 1980s the site was expropriated by the City of Toronto, the TRCA (the Toronto and Region Co ...
