About Toronto
Vibrant city on the shore of Lake Ontario


Toronto lies on the shore of Lake Ontario, the easternmost of the Great Lakes. Home to more than 2 million people, the city is the key to one of North America's most vibrant regions, the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). 4.5 million Canadians live in the GTA, the cultural, entertainment, and financial capital of the nation. The city is also the seat of the Ontario government.
Toronto is a vibrant urban centre made up of eclectic, lively neighbourhoods. It’s a feature unique to our city. Few cities in the world boast our concentrations of diverse cultures, festivals and businesses offering widely satisfying opportunities for international adventure.

From inventive world cuisines to a shopping industry fuelled by global fashions with creative local twists, Toronto provides the kind of exhilarating experience that unfolds when cultures meet, mix and innovate.
In Toronto we’re full of imagination and we know what it means to be truly creative. It shows in our architecture, our art, our affinity for all things green and our internationally inclusive lifestyle. As you walk through Toronto, it feels small, yet Toronto is the fifth-largest city in North America and the largest in Canada.

Toronto is one of the most multi-cultural cities in North America, with over 100 languages to be heard as you walk about the city, and restaurants serving almost every type of food offered throughout the world.
