Fun Facts
Although most locals seem to know that the “Ke” in “Etobicoke” is silent, no one really seems to know why that is, as the original indigenous Mississauga word is “wadoopikaang.” It is likely the result of English and French settler bastardization.
Why We Love Etobicoke
The Woodbine Racetracks, where the annual highlight is the Queen’s Plate. The Queen’s Plate is Canada’s oldest thoroughbred horse race, starting in 1860, it is also the oldest continuously run horse race in North America. Bet on horses like a professional or simply go to see everyone in their best British high society attire, from ladies in custom fascinators to men in pastel shorts and suit jackets.
