Downtown, you could try The Healthy Butcher near Queen/Augusta: http://www.thehealthybutcher.com/ ( http://goo.gl/maps/FN3Vk )
I know I've had Elk sausage from them, and I feel like I saw Bison burgers at some point.

Uptown, I know McEwan's has some less-common meats, at Shops at Don Mills: http://mcewan.mcewangroup.ca/ ( http://goo.gl/maps/PHBCn )
We've had bison salami from their deli, but not fresh meat.

I'd suggest calling before making the trek.

i thought buffalo would be more readily available now that there are ranches all over the US and i think out west in canada as well

I later found confirmation that Healthy Butcher has Bison burgers. It's listed on their summer sausage/burger menu: http://www.thehealthybutcher.com/images/2012-TheHealthyButcher-Summer-SausageAndBurgerMenu.pdf
