It has already been widely reported that Torontonians love Facebook, with one Torontonian in ten possessing an account. One commenter at blogTO ("500,000+ Torontonians Addicted to Crack") claimed that the Facebook "aesthetic appeals to Canadian sensibility, while Myspace is the epitome of the kind of trash fashion that is gaining in popularity in the UK, for example." Flawed value judgements aside, I suspect that Toronto's surprisingly strong embrace of Facebook is about as rational as as Brazilians' fondness for Orkut, that some sort of founder effect just happened to be at work.

Thoughts?
