On the hot humid Ontario days of July, I need the lightest weight singlet possible - best I've found so far is the New Balance Impact Singlet. Any better options??

1. take singlet, cut out holes around your nipples.
2. Cut the singlet at the bottom so that your stomach can get some air.
3. Wear said lighter singlet
4. win race

That should make me very popular on the running paths of London
Better yet, just run shirtless.
i'm closer to 60 than 20 and the paths are very family oriented, so shirtless can feel a little awkward

After Boy George, Madonna and Elton John, I doubt anything you wear would make you seem flamboyant or weird.

Understand. Nice that you are concerned with not offending folks, but if you are a serious runner, I would bet you probably have more right to go shirtless than most.
I wear that singlet - that isn't even the lightest/breathable NB singlet I own (which I don't think NB sells anymore). While it is the lightest one I've found in the NB factory outlet recently, you may be able to do better.
If you feel awkward about being on the path without a shirt, I bet you don't really feel awkward while running, but while stopping and stretching afterwards, while getting in an out of your car, etc. So my advice would be: wear a shirt when you go to run. As you start your run, leave your shirt hanging from a tree. This way when you finish your run, you can put your shirt on while you cool down/stretch, etc.
My second set of advice would be that people probably don't care that you are running shirtless. Unless it is like 40 degrees F outside, then they'll be weirded out that you are shirtless.
If you really want a singlet, just go to your local running store, they usually will have lightweight singlets in stock with their logo on them for cheap.
Or if that fails, go onto eastbay.com and order the $8 singlet. It is loose and fairly light and dirt cheap.
Is this Ontario, CA or Ontario, Canada? This is important. Please respond.

Ontario, CAN is a province of 14 million people. It includes the city of London, where the OP said he or she runs.
Ontario, CA is a town of 150,000.
Found one lighter than the NB impact singlet. The NB Boylston Singlet.
I just got the new brooks Infiniti singlet and really like it. Reckless running singlets are also very nice.
Mizuno and Saucony also have very good lightweight singlets.
Saucony Inferno singlet
Mizuno Aero Singlet
Both singlets are under 100grams
