Toronto in 3 facts

Toronto is a city full of unique characteristics. Its way of life, cultural identity, and distinctive style make Canada’s largest city what it is today. With all of this at hand, Toronto is both a delight and a surprise. Speaking of surprises, we’ve decided to share three little-known facts about the city. First of all, Toronto is perfect for sports fans, being the only city in the country represented in more than five major league sports. Along with, unsurprisingly, hockey, you’ll also find baseball, basketball, football, rugby, and lacrosse teams competing at the highest levels. No matter your favorite sport, Toronto checks all the boxes! Often reduced to a concrete jungle of skyscrapers, Ontario’s capital defies expectations with nearly 10 million trees spread across the city. The oldest of them all is a 300-year-old red oak in North York. And finally, Toronto’s population is made up of over 200 different ethnic backgrounds spread across its 3 million residents. By embracing and celebrating diversity, the city is known as “most multicultural city in the world”. Well done, Toronto!
