So I'm going to Toronto tommorrow.

Are there any tips/suggestions as to where to go and things to see besides the regular touristy stuff?
If the weather is nice, head down to Sunnyside Pavilion and sit on the patio. It's in the west end on the beach and if you go on a weekend there's plenty to see. Great place to people watch, kids breakdancing (they're actually pretty good!), girls playing beach volleyball etc. while enjoying a cold beer and great food if you're hungry.
One of my favourite places to hang out.
If you're an all-night partier, check out the Matador on College St. but not until after 2 a.m. It's an after-hours bar that's been in business since the 30s. They only serve juice and pop at the bar, but you can sneak in a mickey or go see the girl in the corner. Police know of this place but there's never any trouble there so they turn a blind eye to it. It's become part of the city's heritage.
