Toronto, Economic Capital of Canada

With 2.8 million residents, Toronto is the fourth-largest city in North America. Toronto is home to several of Canada’s most important financial institutions, five major universities and many of the country’s leading media and manufacturing companies.

Toronto boasts a highly educated workforce, with 64 percent of its population between the ages of 25 and 64 having achieved some level of post-secondary education. Toronto has a GDP per capita of about US$45,771, which is higher than the national average. The region’s high level of economic activity, trade and consumption make Toronto a key market for logistics and distribution.
