Toronto & the Greater Toronto Area are among the most diverse multicultural regions in North America. Toronto is considered one of the most diverse cities in the world. In Toronto, multiculturalism is not marginal, nor is it an adjunct. Multiculturalism and the cultural richness it engenders exist as core elements of contemporary society in Toronto and are an integral component of the engine which drives the Toronto community forward.
Toronto and the surrounding Greater Toronto Regions, with their rich cultural tapestry - are quite possibly the leading examples of multiculturalism in the world, at work within all sectors of our diverse, contemporary world class city and region.
