Thanks for the interesting and entertaining walking video Johnny! Your walks and rides never get "old!!" They are always super interesting! I love that!! Cheers!!

[@JohnnyStrides]

Thank you so much Christine!

[@christinecamley]

@@JohnnyStrides YW!!

[@dylanreynolds8264]

good morning everyone

[@JohnnyStrides]

Hey everyone! I got a few things wrong on this. At the start of the video I stated the station was formerly known as Yonge, it was actually Sheppard Station. And later I stated I moved to Korea in 2017, I should have said 2007 oops.

[@christinecamley]

Now worries!

Thanks!

[@JohnnyStrides]

Wow thanks Dennis!

[@havebusticketwilltravel2]

Hi Johnny, 👋 how are you? I hope you're having a great week. I just wanted to leave a message and tell you that I love ❤️ your videos, and I just wanted to say hi. I feel like I really know you through all your videos, haha. I also wanted to say you've been an inspiration to me... and I have decided to take KZbin up on its kind offer, to start my own channel. Anyway, I am really starting to ramble, haha. Take care Johnny, and keep up the great work. Sincerely, Will Sorry... currently we are still in the pre-followers stage... 😄

[@JohnnyStrides]

Good luck on the channel!

[@havebusticketwilltravel2]

@Johnny Strides Thank you Johnny... that means a lot coming from you ❤️

[@sgmlaku]

Wonderful after rain walk in Toronto

[@ralphsmithmckenzie4391]

Nice golf course south on the southbound side, just before York Mills Station

[@christinecamley]

Terrific walk Johnny. Sorry about that Tesla driver. Yikes. I have a close friend who lives at Yonge and Sheppard, with a great view of the government building you pointed out, from her condo suite. Last time I was in TO (recently!) I stayed for a few nights at my friend's place and I got to know this neighbourhood more. We had a couple of great meals out! Awesome food and there's really everything right there in the hood that anyone could need! My friend and her teenage daughters love it for convenience and with the proximity to the subway. I like Willowdale. A couple of friends live in this part of North York and like most of TO, and certainly in my city of Vancouver, home prices for apartment suites and semi detached/detached homes are sure expensive. I think Willowdale is the most expensive part of North York. Your walking and riding videos always feel "fresh!!" I like that so much. You always have great variety in your choices of areas to film and you provide really interesting info and perspectives when making videos and I sure appreciate that a lot! Fresh and super interesting and very entertaining! Stay safe out there! 🙂

[@JohnnyStrides]

I agree!

[@claytoncrawford3167]

Dear Mister Johnny Strides... Time travelling can be confusing... Moving to Korea in two thousand and seventeen, he time travelled to the year in two thousand and seven... And he lived in Korea for a few years, beyond the year of twenty thirty-two before time traveling back to the year two thousand seventeen... He never aged because he truly never left the year twenty-seventeen... And so how could Johnny have been to the twenty thirty-two from the year two thousand and seven.. It's Mahagick!.... the end... Always in Good Taste... CHEERS.... Be Supportive and Subscribe...

[@martym61]

Nice video. That arcade looks like fun. Always enjoy your commentary on Toronto drivers.

[@unknownuser0006]

15:22 and that's why automated doors should be a thing at every station

[@kevingarton9970]

Can you please do a video to in Toronto and ending in long branch Station on the go train

[@rocknrollsurvivor8922]

Love the channel brother! What camera do you use it's killer. Thank you

[@JohnnyStrides]

It's a DJI Pocket 2, cheers.

[@stevexie2705]

Nice video Johnny! Its always great to see the amount of diversity in the GTA, especially the northern end. BTW I like you don't mention the race or gender or age of 'bad' drivers, because in a place like TO anyone has the potential to drive poorly.

[@JohnnyStrides]

Thanks! I don't think it's worth mentioning those as you're right, anyone has the capacity to be a terrible driver. Cheers!

[@greatchalla3799]

It’s a Rat Race….glad I’m long gone.

[@heartandsoul4520]

People wearing masks outside. Interesting.
