There is one little piece of outdated information on their "flight planning"
page.

If you need/want to talk to an FSS, it is no longer at Toronto/Buttonville
as shown on that page... it is now at London; you would call "London Radio".
The same FSS frequencies should still work. The 126.7 is the "in-the-air"
frequency, so the "above 3000" qualifier may be valid, but the 123.15 is
supposed to work when you are on the ground at the airport.

And those Buttonville phone numbers are useless, also.

To reach FSS by phone, just call 1-866-WX BRIEF

So, do I understand the information on that page correctly that to
activate my IFR flight plan, I would have to call FSS rather than speak
to the ground controller?

Or does the following quote refer to VFR flight plans?

"Pilots are requested to open & close flight plans with
Toronto/Buttonville FSS on 126.7 or 123.15 above 3000 AGL or by phone."
