“Toronto won't topple New York or London as a financial center, nor will it dethrone Los Angeles as the international entertainment capital, but with its large and stable banks, numerous knowledge-based industries thriving in the surrounding mega-regions, and an increasingly diverse population, it will gain ground.

It stands as a model of an older, once heavily industrial Frostbelt city that has not only turned itself around but continues to grow and thrive.”
