I had been asking this question myself and have heard others ask, is there Judo in Toronto? I think the answer is that there is several options, though I would like to hear from people with feedback about which place would be the better choice.

First, there is the Judo club at Hart House U of T:
University of Toronto Judo ClubI have heard a few positive comments but not a lot of details. First thing that comes to mind, is that anything hosted by a school, university, community centre, etc. is usually a pain to sign up for, but probably worth the hassle in the end as it's probably cheap. Might be a great bang for the buck, so I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience with the club.
