From its origin in 1965 through 2003, it was always held in Toronto. In 2004, 2005, and 2008, it was held in Hamilton. In 2007, it returned to Toronto.
The only times the game hasn't been held inside "The Golden Horseshoe" were 2006 in Saskatoon, and last year and this year in Quebec City.
There's no reason the Dinos couldn't host the game if they put forward a bid. Apparently, they put forward a bid to host it this year, but the CIS decided to award 2009 and 2010 to Laval at the same time:
