Lounge access

I normally only travel alone or with my wife so this is not normally an issue

I am travelling with my 4 daughters they’re in wt I’m in club YYZ to LHR I know as a GGL I can take 5 Guests in the lounge at London but is it the same in Toronto it’s not the best lounge since it changed from an actual BA lounge (lack of space etc)
sorry if this is posted elsewhere have tried to find it but no success

If it is not a BA lounge, I'm afraid not. The 5 guests rule applies to BA lounges only (excluding the CCR) and only if the guests are on the same flight.

YYZ is somewhat unusual, in that it remains a BA lounge specific arrangement, albeit third party. It is possible (I don't actually know) that Plaza Premium have been contracted to run the lounge using BA access rules, as happens in JER, for example. So it may be worth a try anyway, just to see if they are operating off the full BA manual in that location. It wouldn't work in YUL, for example, but I think it is worth checking.
