Yes, Mars is indeed warmer than Toronto
Mars vs. Earth temperature comparisons are always a little tricky. The temperamental Martian climate sees such wild variations that there’s usually some temperature overlap between the two planets. But let’s focus on Gale Crater, a notably chilly section of Mars hosting the Curiosity rover. The latest daily weather report from the rover (recorded on Sol 1547) saw an air temperature high of -8 C. In Toronto, Pearson International Airport was recording -8.4 C on Thursday afternoon.
