More about love than hate, Let's All Hate Toronto is the hilarious barn-burning adventure into Canada's other national pastime - bashing Toronto. The first film ever made on the subject, the filmmakers take the insane approach, sending a "Mister Toronto" across the nation, holding "Toronto Appreciation Days" at his own peril. Canada basically goes berserk. But does Toronto really suck? Or is Canada just afraid of growing up?

Mister Toronto hurdles through the divide to discover more than he could imagine about the "Centre of the Universe" and the crazy country around it.

From the team behind Stupidity and Escape to Canada comes a revolutionary new film that blows the lid of Canada's greatest taboo.

Canada has never been so much fun.

The film begins as Mr. Toronto (co-director Rob Spence) sees a Hamilton billboard boasting the slogan "Toronto Sucks." Mr. Toronto is shocked to discover the rest of Canada hates his beloved city, so he sets out on a cross-country "Toronto Appreciation Day" tour to uncover the roots of this animosity.

Mr. Toronto's journey begins in Hamilton, home of the "Toronto Sucks" advertising campaign. He encounters a group of "bag men", football fans so ashamed of the Hamilton Tiger Cats' poor performance that they don't want to be recognized. However, Mr. Toronto finds that Hamiltonians still have a great deal of pride in their home town.

The Toronto Appreciation Day tour takes Mr. Toronto to St. John's, Halifax, and Montreal, where his Toronto work ethic influences the city to change the light bulbs on the giant cross atop Mount Royal. He travels to Calgary and Vancouver, where he learns that resentment towards Toronto runs very deep.

Let's All Hate Toronto presents a list of the top ten reasons why Canada hates Toronto, including envy, violence, pollution and The Toronto Maple Leafs. In the end, Mr. Toronto is so discouraged that, like the Hamilton Tiger Cats fans, he puts a bag on his head and wanders into the fog at Toronto's Nuit Blanche art event. What happens next will make everyone question why they've been saying "Let's All Hate Toronto."

Let's All Hate Toronto is co-directed and produced by filmmaker Albert Nerenberg of Elevator Films (Toronto & Bolton, Que.). The film was commissioned by CBC Newsworld and is a world television premiere.
