Thank you Dennis!

[@sepandttcexplorer]

Good morning Johnny and everyone! Thank you for a wonderful tour around downtown on a busy Friday night!! Lots of bars and patios too. The TORONTO sign at Nathan Phillips square was so amazing!! I always love going to Nathan Philips square at night where it’s always packed with people around. I hope everyone has a great Sunday!! Cheers guys!!

[@claudiosakaeshigemi6889]

You are an excellent commentator for this type of video! Your voice is perfect for that. Calm and peaceful.

[@Mike.T.]

There's a Buick Grand National at 2:13 and this is now my favorite video ever.

[@mohammadjawadstan9302]

Thanks for the stunning night walk, night walks are incredible.

[@RossRoams]

Night time walks are very cool. Good work Johnny!

[@JohnnyStrides]

It's my understanding the application with City Hall for it was primarily to prevent the loitering but that's probably correct as well. Cheers

[@brentsarazin6597]

Even being a video you recorded some time ago now it was quite the eye opener and also so Great to see Life coming back into, at least, the nightlife of Toronto..ty

[@seanhayden7719]

Hello Johnny i love the night walks they have a chilled vibe to them

[@hifiverpro]

21:48 outstanding view CN Tower blue and gold and megenta 💙💛💜

[@JohnnyStrides]

I agree!

[@RamblingBear]

Hi Johnny great night walk with the different approach to Dundas Sq. You said you had a request for a silent walk but l like the narrated walks with the added info. Nathan Phillips Sq set up for the Dragon Festival in the year of the Rabbit ...l think. Passing Osgoode Hall with one of Ken's favourite buildings opposite the Four Seasons with it's splendid Opera events Ha Ha. Keep Well, Keep Safe. C.J.H.

[@CityWalks3216]

This was awesome love the night walks thanks Johnny!! 😊

[@nosashuly]

[@kathleendass3798]

Hey Johnny I miss this but I look at it after very nice indeed the TO looks beautiful with the light on at night much appreciate all your time you take to do these video

[@JohnnyStrides]

Thank you!

[@Neville60001]

0:09-This spot and stairs is where the 'heroes' of the movie _Suicide Squad_ emerged from in the movie in the first part of said movie.

[@hanimohamd1450]

Soo sweet

[@21stcenturyMoments]

One of the highlights from the video. The bright Toronto sign. Totally Instagram photo.

[@mohriaz6162]

Thank you

[@welcome_Moscow_walks]

Hello from Moscow. It was very interesting to see Toronto in the night 😊

[@davidkucher5.0Coy]

Great walk around Johnny, that car behind the Lambo is a Mercedes AMG coupe. 😎🙏👍

[@Neville60001]

20:37-Where that store in the right hand corner across the street is now used to be a bar and restaurant called X-Rays that was-IIRC-set up and run by Dan Ackroyd.

[@JohnnyStrides]

Neat!

[@WaslonLopes]

43:10 The most beautiful part of the video!

[@leadnsteel1428]

Big waste of money. I would never buy 1 even if I had 10 million

[@claudiosakaeshigemi6889]

Have you ever thought about making some videos of the parks there?

[@danielroy1966]

02:13 - I love that car. It may look outdated to some, but hey - so do I. :-) 25:10 - If it were in Germany, I would say it's a Turkush wedding. Seriously, our Turkish residents honk like hell then. 37:12 - I'd live to drive it, but I would ask someone else to park it for me. 40:22 - A group of relaxed policemen with bicycles in a big city's downtown area on a busy Friday night. Would this be possible south of the border?

2 queen west is taking so long to finish construction

[@manishkhanna2047]

Johnny, try to do Toronto nightlife walks more often

[@hifiverpro]

11:53 Did u see Kens video when the person toppled over the art display in the pool July 14

[@JohnnyStrides]

Sadly I did.

[@coasterfrk100]

except for the occasional sign letting one know the location Toronto looks like any major American city

[@JohnnyStrides]

Not really.. you won't find many big US cities this full of life across so many connected neighbourhoods at this time of night. There's NYC and ... nothing else really comes close.

[@coasterfrk100]

Good point

[@jadwehbe_]

youtube is so weird every time i click subscribe next time I click on your videos it goes back to subscribe red button

[@JohnnyStrides]

Yikes, I've heard that from a few others before.

[@evajeremiemunkamba362]

Hi dear how are you l would like to invite you on concert on December

[@nosashuly]

33:27 Don't they get mad they are being filmed?

[@JohnnyStrides]

🤷‍♀️ I can't imagine why anyone would have a problem with this. It's perfectly legal and you're on cameras everywhere you go, all day long pretty much anyway.

[@cheesyrider6914]

bye,unsubscribed

so lame 😒 then stop watching it

[@JohnnyStrides]

lol this is such a bad take it's not even worth responding to. take care

[@Neville60001]

@Cheeseyrifer, he _isn't_ doing so; those women just happened to be captured by his camera's lenses at a certain point. As long as they're not totally nude, there really is no problem, and you need to stop concern trolling.
