Toronto

This is one of the nicest cities I've ever been to. It's North America's best kept secret. The largest city in Canada and the home to Ontario's government, it has a quite diverse population of mostly Greeks, Chinese, and whites. It has what many (mostly Torontonians) consider the tallest building in the world (it depends on your definition of "building"), the CN Tower. Downtown Toronto has a lot of nice skyscrapers, most notably one of my favorites the ScotiaBank building. However, Toronto holds onto its past as there are numerous old rowhouses still standing. Set on Lake Ontario, the city has a beautiful harborfront, with a great set of little islands just across it. Take the ferry out there if you go, you won't regret it. It's most people's favorite part of the trip.
