I'm looking at Dublin-Toronto-Calgary vs Dublin-London-Calgary (I mean, I could hostel it, stay a night in Toronto, and fly on to Calgary, if necessary.) The upside is that Dublin-Toronto and Toronto-Calgary flights are somewhat more frequent than London-Calgary direct flights. The downside is making the connecting flight on a foreign continent, gasp and horror! :)

I've never been. But it does look good. :)
