Oh, and Tangsuije, likely the TAs you will find in Toronto will speak Cantonese, so it may not help you after all.
However, off topic this is, my very unscientific study of the name list of Toronto PhD students revealed the following distribution of Chinese names: 15 unambiguously Mandarin, 2 unambiguously Cantonese, 1 unambiguously Hokkien, 1 which is is either Hokkien or Cantonese, and 1 I couldn't place. So whilst Cantonese speakers may dominate Toronto on the whole, they certainly don't dominate the economics department.
