Here’s Where the First iPhone 5 Line Up Has Started in Canada [PIC]

It’s the day before the iPhone 5 launch and it looks like the first line up has started, as spotted by MobileSyrup. The chap below is already waiting outside the Apple Store inside the Eaton Centre in Toronto. He has just under 24 hours to go. I hope he’s not looking to buy an unlocked iPhone 5 in store, because as Apple confirmed with us, they won’t be available.

Oh, and if you’re at Eaton Centre right now, ask that guy for us if he’s planning on buying unlocked or a carrier iPhone 5.

If you see any other line ups, send us a tweet @iPhoneinCanada or email us!

Update: Commenter Momin says the first person in line is going with Virgin Mobile. He is Jupit3r in the comments below.

Update 2: Looks like other lines have started across Canada.

The line up has started in Edmonton…(via @wunderbar, thanks @meadorsmusings):
