There’s a bunch of us over in the Fringe Beat section. Sadly there’s not a directory by area, so you have to sift through the pages letter by letter, but there’s close to a dozen comic folk in that area.
I’ve tried to sort that out on the page for Word on the Street Toronto https://joeshusterawards.com/2011/09/21/happenings-word-on-the-street-toronto-2011/
Never mind, just saw the other post with detailed listings.
