Toronto is Canada’s largest city. In 1998 it became a “Mega City” and one of the largest cities in North America as a result of an amalgamation of six municipalities including: Etobicoke, East York, North York, Scarborough, York, and the City of Toronto. Each of these former municipalities have maintained their own sense of place and together have helped make Toronto one of the most vibrant and diverse Cities in the world.
