I did a quick check and it looks like you're close to Mohawk College. I did a search of their site and found that Pat Collins is on faculty. See if you can somehow get a lesson with him. I have no doubt that a single lesson with one of Toronto's many fantastic bass players would give you a good kick in the pants.
Toronto is, I think, the bass capital of the world.
