Serving Canada’s Largest Municipality

Toronto is the capital of Ontario and Canada’s largest city, recognized nationally and internationally as a centre for government, finance, culture, infrastructure, and innovation. With a population exceeding three million residents and a metropolitan region of over six million, the City of Toronto operates within one of the most sophisticated municipal governance frameworks in North America.

Originally founded in 1793 as the Town of York, Toronto has evolved into a global city shaped by Indigenous heritage, British colonial foundations, post-war urban expansion, and sustained international immigration.
