Canada,
considered a nation of quiet and peaceful people, is now the
home of immigrants from over 165 countries and hence a multicultural
country. The major city in Canada is Toronto, the capital of
Ontario, the seat of the Government. A recent amalgamation of
seven former municipalities resulted with one Toronto. Toronto
is a great city to live and work in, or just to visit. It has
a high quality of life and reliable services, and considered
one of the safest urban environments in the world. Toronto lies
on the shore of Lake Ontario, the easternmost of the Great Lakes.
Home to more than 3 million people, the city is the key to one
of North America's most vibrant regions and the cultural, entertainment,
and financial capital of Canada.
