Toronto

[tuh-ronno]

Home to the Raptors and many racoons, Toronto is Canada's largest city - housing one of the most diverse populations in the world.



The city is an important cultural centre. The Toronto Symphony Orchestra and other musical groups have an international reputation. There are four major theatres, together with many smaller theatres and theatre companies, including the Factory Theatre, which is Canada’s largest producer of exclusively Canadian plays, and Canadian Stage, which performs in several theatres. The Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Ontario Museum have excellent collections, and there are numerous privately owned galleries. Other attractions include the Ontario Science Centre, with its imaginative working exhibits, and Ontario Place, a large complex of recreational facilities on man-made islands that are an extension to the permanent Canadian National Exhibition.
