Canada · Visible passes
From Toronto (43.65° N, 79.38° W) you can see the International Space Station with the naked eye whenever it crosses your night sky while still lit by the Sun, usually in the two hours after sunset or before sunrise.
The ISS orbit reaches latitudes up to 51.6° north and south, so from Toronto it can pass high overhead. China’s Tiangong station flies no further from the equator than 41.5°, so from Toronto it only appears low over the southern horizon.
Times in the list are shown in your device’s time zone (Toronto is on Eastern Time).

No. The ISS is one of the brightest objects in the night sky and is easy to see with the naked eye, even from a city like Toronto. It looks like a steady, non-blinking star that crosses the sky in a few minutes.
China’s Tiangong station flies no further from the equator than 41.5°, so from Toronto it only appears low over the southern horizon.
