I've been lucky with both LHS when I was living in Mississauga. The first one was owned and run by an older gentleman who was passionate about models (he helped me a lot when I bought my airbrush) and did his best to help me find parts for a discontinued ship model. When the search failed, he gave me lots of tips on how to make the parts needed and was happy to talk about his past. Really nice guy but closed shop due to failing health.
The next place I went to after that had great service too. They were very helpful with me and actually steered me to some cheaper stuff that met my needs better. They were the ones who introduced me to the liquid latex and told me about the gauze trick. They are called, "North Star Hobbies" and are located on 2200 Dundas St. East. I believe they still have their display train set and the last time I saw it, that was one nice layout.
