The most multi-cultural city in the world. It has the dubious honor of being the one place everyone in Canada loves to fling mud at - BUT that would be because it doesn't rain 3/4 of the year and it's not tiny and freezing cold, nor does it need to boast a mall to make it a landmark, it's not on the prairies in the middle of nowhere, and it doesn't want desperately to get out of Canada, and most of all because the average Torontonian just could never out-drink an east coaster! Toronto, Canada's economic centre, pulse of the nation - the rock, the anchor, the pillar that Canadians can't help but love AND yet love to hate. Let's face it - the mud might fling, but it just can't stick!
Just think of it like that guy in school that got all the best grades AND got the girls AND the job AND the hot car AND the nice house. And yet - he's just the best guy! Only he's completely misunderstood. Welcome to Toronto.

I can't argue that Toronto is a large city with a lot of venues and establishments to offer. I don't contest the fact that the Toronto Stock Exchange is world class and that the city has plently of world class art and theater attractions. Hell it even has a wannabe times square outside of the Eaton shopping mall.
Having said that, Toronto is different from a World Class city and maybe my equation will help you to see how.
World Class City like New York or London - having a subway out to the airport - having any sense of what nice architecture is like Paris or Boston - having a public Lakefront like Chicago - ever having the Olympics - having beautiful women all over the place like Los Angeles or Montreal - sports franchises that can keep up with American teams + an aids infested gay community like San Francisco + tonnes of homeless people like New Dehli + heroin junkies and worthless runaways of New York City + the ego of Nazi Germany + the scummy air of Mexico City + Violent Jamaicans like in Kingston + the terrorist sleeper cells like Afghanasthan = Toronto
Woah thats a lot of math but I checked in the back of the text book and this is all true.
I live in Northern Ohio and I have been to just about every major in North America and every time I go to Toronto for a ball game or something, I look at the people and think to my self, "I am so proud that I am not one of them".

Torontonian with head up his ass: Hey ya hoser. The Women of Toronto are the hottest in the world eh!
Person who goes to an American University: Mmm. Well if you like hippies, suicidal runaways, annorexic/starving junkies, women that are out of shape, and otherwise good looking women with fucked up ethnic noses, than ya. I'd say you struck gold.
----------
Announcer at Sky Dome: Get on your feet Blue Jay fans and show some civic pride. We are Toronto. We are world class. Lets show the world what were made of.
Cleveland Indians fan: Well thats nice. I don't remember hearing how top notch Ney York City was at Yankee Stadium. I guess New York isn't as good as Toronto.

There is nothing clean about this city. People from Toronto say that there is a nice clean subway. Please tell me what is clean about our subway i am a bit confused. I live in Toronto and have wondered for years what has happened to this city. I also don't understand why people are constantly acting "ganster" in this city if you really want to be a better city then all the others in Canada try acting normal. They pretend like they are the best when really they are the scum of Ontario.

One of the worst big cities in the world. The people of toronto absolutely suck ass and the night life is pure shit.
Negatives:
- The last call for alcohol is at 2 am.
- You can't buy liquor or beer anywhere but at a government owned establishment (which most of them close at 9 pm: LCBO).
- The weed is the worst in the world.
- The clubs are pack with dudes, with a ratio of like 9 dudes per chick in clubs.
- The city reeks.
- The majority of people dress like absolute crap and have no fashion sense whatsoever.
- For some reason, most Toronto chicks don't like to hang out with girls or don't have too many chick friends because they all stab each other in the back (haha).
- The toronto Maple Leafs absolutely suck ass (good reflection of the city overall).
- The strip clubs are the worst. The lap dances are 20$ and you're not supposed to touch (of course I do anyway and the chicks like it).
- They have the worst drivers in the world.
- It's filled with fucking annoying faggot douchebags.
- There's really nothing to see there. It's an absolutely shitty version of New York.
- Cost of living is high for such a boring city.
- You go downtown after 9 PM and it's completely DEAD! (except for the shitty "entertainment" disctrict which is filled with dudes laced clubs.)
- People from Toronto hate the city, so need I say more?
In a nutshell, Toronto is New York's retarded half brother.
Positives:
- There are some pretty hot chicks (from all sorts of diverse ethnic backgrounds).
- The chicks are dumb as hell.
- The chicks are pretty easy to get in bed (especially if you speak 4 languages fluently and happen to be a good looking 6'2 and lean 205 lbs guy like me.)

Dude #1: hey let's go to Toronto Canada to bang plenty of fucking chicks.
Dude #2: No fucking way bro! I'd rather hang myself than go to fucking Toronto.
Dude #1: You know what? fuck it, lets go to Montreal instead.
Dude #2: Yeahhhh, now you're talking!

N. The largest city in Canada located on Lake Ontario with a population of 4 million in the greater area
Pros:
1.Very clean & efficient subway and transit comission
2.Very Safe for a North American City of its size
3.Strong civic Economy
4.Home to Major league baseball, basketball and hockey
5.Very Nice summers
6.World Class train station
Downfalls:
1.There are a lot of immigrants including but not limited to Jamacans who try to emulate New York City culture and believe they live repressed post slave lives of African Amercans even though they live in the world's most accepting country and they are probably on welfare.
2. Downtown has the most lousy architecture in the West
3.There are lots of limpwrists, metrosexuals and sex maniacs
4. There is an attitude that Toronto is superior to the rest of Canada even though cities like Montreal and Vancouver deliver where Toronto falls short.
5. They try too hard to be like an American city while hating the USA at the same time
6. Gangster wanna bees think calling it T.dot is hardcore. They think they are tough until they go to L.A., Miami, Detroit or D.C. and get torn to shit because they're all boys in a mans world.
Toronto has a lot to offer but it is not as world class as it thinks it is and it is a poser city.

One hell of a city, and I mean that in a good way. It's often pronounced with a silent 't', making it sound like "Toronno", and the weather's only "terrible" if you're a pansy and can't handle it (the weather's not even bad at all, anyways). Many individuals state that Toronto is "smoggy and dirty", but this assumption is only correct if one is referring to 'downtown Toronto'. Many other areas of Toronto are perfectly clean, and downtown Toronto is not always smoggy (it has its smoggy and non-smoggy days just like any other large city would).
Most immigrants who come to Canada choose to settle in Toronto, and from experience it is the sad truth that a lot of ethnic groups call white people racist, even when it's them who are actually the racists.
Toronto is also home to the CN Tower, that giant skyscraper that Godzilla would most likely use as a toothpick if he ever came to Toronto or existed in the first place.
