bg---glad i could help.
i'm wary of actual lessons via the af. they tend to be expensive and a bit on the bourgeois nimrod side--you know, lots of "francophiles" wanting to know about the usual cooking, fashion and the other stuff that you can imagine if you want to think of france as a giant mall.
that said, i think the alliance is a great resource that may well have the information you're looking for to plug back into speaking.
if they maintain a library, ask the librarians rather than the folk at the front desk.
other possibilities:
the thing maybe to do is find out about the english-french conversation exchange arrangements, which they might mediate, or which they might know of (if they're mediate elsewhere)...if you look at france-usa contacts (fusac) sometime--and i'm not sure how one gets that here, but in paris at least it's easy to find as is a central source for expat housing and/or service exchanges--you can get names of organizations in france and perhaps work backward from there.
i found this for example:
Conversation Exchange - Search result
checking with the french departments at universities or with exchange programs that shuttle folk into and out of france might also be good.
another idea is the french cultural services sector of the consulate, which handles among other things fellowships and such and is maybe another resource to at least call.
this is a links page with other french/francophone listings in toronto. there's other stuff on the main pages as well:

French Internet Radio - Listen to French online radio news and information and practice your French!
a couple that are interesting but not necessarily on the directories, i dunno why:
chatty anarchist radio:
