Toronto is the largest city in Canada and it’s part of the Toronto-Waterloo Corridor. This corridor contains 90% of Canada’s population and 70% of its GDP. It’s also called “the Silicon Valley North”.
I would like to share my thoughts after living in Canada for three weeks.
Our itinerary: Toronto – London (Ontario) – Ottawa – Montreal – Calgary – Banff and Jasper National Parks – Kamloops – Whistler – Vancouver.
As we drove closer, the weather became worse and the skies were much heavier. We could see heavy clouds and the fog was hanging in a misty thickness over the city as it prepared to welcome us. I don’t know how we angered the capital city of Ontario, but the heavens did not promise a warm welcome.
What didn’t you like?
Cities are unfortunately not hooked up. I knew that Canada isn’t Europe but in any case, there is some disappointment present. Even though I kind of liked Vancouver and am excited about Montreal, it doesn’t seem worth the fight. I’ve lived in a metro area for over half my life, and now that I’m becoming more settled with a family, I’ve started to think about whether it would make sense for us to move. London (southern Ontario) was one of the options we considered, but after visiting it and discovering how dull and vacant it is, I
Interesting but when it launched, Canadians greeted the idea of receiving texts in their own language as fantastic news. However, they soon realized that the service was too limited to be useful.
Ottawa attracted the attention of easterners as a city. To their understanding, this European lookalike is well-located and not a metropolis. Vancouver seems to have more to offer than other metropolitan areas. It’s close to nice ocean and mountain views, which makes it particularly beautiful. Kamloops was an interesting place even though it seemed a bit small for my tastes. It does still have its own university, however.
Positive and amazing: of course, the proximity of natural beauties and their accessibility in terms of infrastructure (a lot of great places can be reached on excellent roads). For me, I see a pretty great future for tourism in Romania. Life in the wild is astonishing and incredible because of such volume.
Visiting Banff, Jasper, and Whistler was breathtaking. I enjoyed the amazing landscapes and mountains, waterfalls, dense forest and glacial lakes. It was also very neat seeing deer, raccoons, bears and mountain goats – not to mention some of Canada’s most stunning sights! Yes, for sure participating in such occasions – the heart is full of beauty and if we go, it will be more likely for us to go west so that this beauty can form a beautiful backside.
Another good thing is the multinationalism of Canada. Neither the Chinese in Vancouver nor the Arabs and Sri Lankans in Toronto were embarrassed. They researched mixed – multinational and interracial companies of teenagers, young people who find nothing confusing about the way they communicate
The reasons I think Toronto is such a great place to live are:
Toronto has a great food scene and an even greater restaurant menu. The St. Lawrence Market has been voted the best food market in the world by National Geographic magazine, and Vogue magazine claims that Toronto is a must-see for all foodies or those who consider. There are so many of his restaurants that it’s hard to name just a few.
The BBC named Toronto the most multinational city in the world with over 200 nationalities. The city is home to 8.4% immigrants, who make up its multinational population.
Garfors has traveled the world extensively, but he ranked Toronto 2nd best city he’s been to.
The Economist’s research department has named Toronto to be the fourth most livable city in the world, and for good reason. This ranking was based on factors such as culture, health, economic stability, education and environment. Toronto is also well-equipped with infrastructure for its residents!
While we were in Toronto, we did several things. These included
1) The customer opened a bank account and issued credit cards.
2) We have agreed to work with a realtor who will send over options for apartments that we may be interested in from December onwards.
3) We went to Niagara
4) We had a good walk through the whole of downtown, looked at the outskirts of the city and rode public transport.
The general opinion that many people share, especially Canadians. Canada is a great place to live in because: You can rest assure that any issue or problem you have right now will be solved in the future, You’ll never lack for something to think about and do each day, it’s family centered and people of all ages are valued here, also there is social equality and security.
Let’s talk about some interesting things we learned about Toronto.
Moving to Toronto? To know what you’re in for, you should know that the city has a population of 3 million and is home to some of Canada’s largest financial and telecommunications institutions. There are lots of crowded streets & sidewalks, noisy activity and strong smells.
Perhaps that is why in Toronto, unlike Montreal, there is a lack of affordable housing. You need to be prepared to spend a significant portion of your salary on rent.
Toronto has over 140 languages spoken here but you don’t need to know French to live in Toronto. In fact, the most common language used here is English. In the 2011 census, 55% of people reported English as their first language and 43% said they had a different first language.
Public transportation in Toronto is more reliable and widespread than in Montreal. We have buses, ferries, trams, taxis, and bicycles. But it’s worth noting that people complain about traffic jams and the slow speed of public transport.
When I think of Toronto, I think of it as the City of Friendship. Gathered from all over the world, people manage to coexist peacefully in one city, forgetting about squabbles and squabbles. Those who succeed and fall in love with Toronto and Canada do so because they know how to live in peace with the whole world. They will stay here forever. Those who don’t, won’t be able to understand or accept Toronto in the end.
It’s not just the people in this city who make friends. Houses do not repress plants, dogs don’t chase squirrels, and geese without fear fly at skyscraper heights. Toronto is a place of peace and tranquility where all are welcome. And that warmth is what will always remain in my heart.
