Toronto

Toronto is a city in the Canadian province of Ontario, and the country's most populous city. Founded in the late 18th century as York, it was later renamed Toronto, possibly an alteration of the Iroquois Native American word tkaronto, which translates as "place where trees stand in water". Since then, the city has become a prominent center for culture, art, finance and is one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world.
