After expressing incredulity someone would visit Toronto for tourism and asking what I planned to do, listing off things I planned to do (Second City, Royal Ontario Museum, get some good food in Chinatown) he seemed satisfied.
I had a similar experience with an American border guard when driving in to the US to visit the North Dakota State Fair. “You’re here for the state fair? Why?”.
Of course, AFTER visiting the fair, I have to admit he kind of had a point.
