Wonder who this is?
Looks like a drive in theatre in Toronto on the upper right. Date unknown. Google suggests Honor Blackman and she did star in a movie made in Toronto in the seventies, but I don't think this is her. Update. And it's not. It's a Martha Deaken, co-pilot of Howard Adair's Manx Norton and keen supporter of CMA airport racing, our cover girl for this month." Canadian Motorcycle Association News, November 1951. From the Ted Whitney collection.

I'd bet one of the Hanrahan twins, either May or April.
A better question is why the Norton is missing it's headlight and has the Tachometer mounted jauntily sideways like a race bike, yet still carries standard exhaust and fenders?
Looks like a plunger-frame Inter. D.
This is what the internets told me:
