I've searched to see if there was a thread if there were any ontario groups. There was, but thread was 5 years old and didnt want to play necromancer lol.
Curious if there were members here in the gta area wanting to do a meetup? I've moved from

Winnipeg mb to Mississauga ON. Wouldnt mind meeting new people =) would probably be in the spring so we can smoke outside unless someone knows a place we can smoke indoors.

I'm in Toronto and I go to the Toronto Pipe Club meetings whenever they're on. Its a great group of guys.
I'm always up for a nice sit and talk on a park bench while enjoying a pipe, so feel free to PM me.

I'm in Ottawa but I'm not aware of any clubs in the region. There were a couple of guys from the area that were members of this forum but they went silent and it was before I joined the forum.

Well, my family lived there 135 years ago. Then we left because we heard the winters were warmer in South Dakota. :mrgreen:

aro,
I try to give my B&M's business, but its really hard. A 100G tin of tobacco here is just under $70. By mail order, I land two tins at my door for less than $50. My other issue is that I really don't buy pipes at any sort of reasonable frequency. I own 7 pipes, have not bought one for almost a year now and I honestly don't feel the need to add to my collection. I feel bad about it, but there's no way I could afford pipe smoking if I had to get my tobacco here. It would help a lot if smoking lounges were allowed. I'd pay a premium for that. As it is, I have to enjoy my pipes either on my balcony or in a secluded corner of my local parks so as not to break any bylaws.

Ya i'm in a similiar situation.

The price for tobacco here in canada is ridiculous. Pretty much all my tobacco comes from our friends south of the border.

Not to mention the variety.

Its a shame that it has come to this. i would love to keep it local but its just not worth it

I'm lucky in that i have a garage that i have turned into my cave where i can enjoy a smoke. Heated in the winter as well so its wonderful to get away even for a short while.

If your ever in etobicoke and feel like a bowl let me know. Pipers are always welcome in my cave

Cheers brother

Also from the GTA here. I also only visit local B&M's for pipes and supplies. I acquire the vast majority of my tobacco from the US as well.
Oh, and I would also love to do a meet up. I am in the North East end (Markham). I have joined the mailing lost for the Toronto Pipe Club but I haven't gone to any events as yet.
Cheers
