Introducing Ask Torontoist

Starting now, Torontoist is here to help to solve all your civic quandaries with a brand new feature: Ask Torontoist!

Here's how the magic happens. You have a question about something. "What's the deal with ________" or "where can I find ________" or "how come ________" or "what's the history of _________" or "who's responsible for _________" or any other question that you think we might be able to help with. You email ask@torontoist.com with it. If it's the sort of thing we think the rest of our readers will be interested in knowing the answer to, we promptly dispatch the person or persons most suited to answer it from our elite team of specially trained investigative experts (also known as our staff) to unravel your mystery and figure out the answer—if we don't already know it (these are experts we're talking about, remember). Then, we publish an article with your question, and its answer, together. Everyone wins, especially you. So, the next time you've got a question about Toronto, just ask us: email ask@torontoist.com.
