A few suggestions, have a look at the sites run by the
Wireless Toronto folks:

 http://wirelesstoronto.ca/wt_hotspot_locations.php

They have deals going with a number of local cafes,
pubs, etc.. The Wi-Fi is free, just be ready to buy
coffee / food / beer / etc.. 

Also, SOME McDonalds offer 45 minutes of Wi-Fi with
any food order of over $3. Unfortunately I can not
find a definitive list of Canadian McDonalds that do
offer Wi-Fi. I can tell you (because I tried them)
this McDonalds does offer Wi-Fi:

  YONGE & TEMPERANCE  	
  123 YONGE ST
  TORONTO, ON
  M5C 1W4
  (416) 862-8899

When you place your food order ask for a wireless
coupon which will have configuration info. and a one
time user name/password.

Problem with all the above is as far as I know, no
printers... Still, there is FedEx Kinko's for that (at
prices will hurt...):
