The Raptors won't even exist if they are both still in the playoffs at the same time.

While I agree the Leafs are still the dominant sports franchise in the city you really are out to lunch here. The Raptors have one of the best followings in the NBA. They currently are playing in the best era in the franchises 22 year history. The Blue Jays are also a monster right now.
Fortunately for Toronto, not unlike Boston, New York, Chicago etc they have the population that will heavily support all their pro franchises (CFL doesn't count because it is irrelevant).
