Once known as “Toronto the Good,” Toronto has come a long way since its days as a conservative, religious and largely uptight city. Today it has evolved into one of the most popular cities in North America and thanks to its newly-found sophistication, multiculturalism and vibrant energy it is rapidly becoming regarded as one of the best places in the world in which to live.
Expatriates based in Toronto may find themselves feeling that somehow they are escaping the economic woes that the rest of the world is experiencing. While so many major metropolises suffer from the dulling effects of globalization, Toronto is actually a city that is on the rise. New boutiques, swanky restaurants and vibrant neighborhoods are popping up all over the place and the cultural diversity of the city is evolving at a breakneck pace. However, despite all the development, Toronto retains an air of serenity and continues to offer expatriates an urban lifestyle that is offset with lush greenery, quiet getaways, and a progressive balance between urban living and environmental ownership.

- A relatively moderate climate with humid summers, cold winters, and crisp, beautiful autumns and springs.
