Hello Adam,

Buy lots of warm clothing, a good coat, heavy wool socks, a good pair of snow boots, gloves or mits, a hat or toque that will cover your ears. Winter is coming and if you've never experienced a Canadian winter before you're in for a big surprise.

Other than that you're not going to find Toronto too different from LA, it's really a very cosmopolitan city, just lots smaller.

The only problem you might encounter is that it may be a bit more difficult to make friends in Toronto, many expats complain about that. Ontarians are by nature very conservative and some can be rather remote. Don't let that put you off, just keep on trying you'll make friends I'm sure.
