Toronto

Canada’s Business Centre

As the fastest-growing tech market and second-largest finance hub in North America, Toronto is attracting the world. Over 200 languages are spoken in the city, and a nearly 45% per cent of Toronto residents speak something other than English or French at home. Waves of immigration over the last 50 years have made Toronto the biggest city in Canada and the fourth biggest on the continent. (sourceicons.external-link-icon)
