Where else can you relax?
Star Alliance Gold access
Complementary snacks, beverages including beer (after 11am) and booze with plenty of space to relax before your flight. Surf for free but that's not a stretch since all of Pearson offers free WiFi.
Although the total area is large and offers a separate children area (greatly appreciated), the lounge feels small. The raised area in the center breaks up the floor plan for a chopped up deal. Still, more room than you'll get on the flight.
Compared to lounges in around the world (HK, London T1, Beijing, Tokyo) Maple Leaf is below average but compared to US lounges (LA, DFW, Chicago, San Fran, Denver) it's way above par. I guess that puts it right in the middle.
