Enjoy the satellite gates. It's 1,700 steps and about 30 minutes from parking to the gate.

YYZ is just plain cheap as f*ck.

You'll use eight escalators and moving sidewalks and four will be out of service. Most taxiways are unlit... yes, you read that correctly... they use reflectors as "edge markings." "Lit" taxiway signage often doesn't work or is lit in a weird way where black lettering on yellow background has the lettering lit and the background unlit. Menzies sucks more than your favourite call girl. ATC uses non-standard phraseology. You will constantly be asked where Flair and Sunwing flights are leaving out of and why they're delayed, even though you've never worked for either company. Food closes at 8 but you'll be kicked out of line at 7:54. You'll spend twenty minutes looking for parking. The Link Train (from parking to the terminal) goes down for maintenance from 0800-1330 every week day, so you're down to one train every 7.5 minutes. You'll get laughed at for requesting an RNAV approach... only ILS and visuals are ever given. Your runway will be assigned 15 minutes out and then changed 5 minutes before intercepting the LOC.
Did somebody hurt you as a child?

No, my childhood was fine... it is my constant negative experiences at YYZ that hurt me.
