Yank-in-NY Yank-in-NY:
Born and raised in New York City and have visited Toronto a myriad of times.

No, Toronto is not New York.

But that's the point, isn't it?

It's Torontians that have a fetish for comparison.

Personally, I have found Toronto dull. Montreal is a very exciting city. Vancouver can always hold its own.




Very well said. I also have been born and raised in NYC lived in Toronto for about one year on and off. My wife is from Toronto. Toronto IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO NYC! My wife used to say the same crap till she moved here.

While Toronto itself isn't even close to NYC, it IS however the Canadian equivalent.

Toronto is Toronto.
Then you all wonder why Canadians have a inferiority complex, Stop comparing your cities to every other city. Toronto is a great city in its own right.

You will rarely hear an American saying "wow Minneapolis is like our Toronto"

New York City has an estimated gross city product of $457.3 billion(2006), larger than the GDP of Switzerland ($377 billion). If it were a country, the city's economy would be 17th largest in the world, and at $56,000 per person, New York would have the second highest per capita GDP in the world. According to a study conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the New York urban area (18.7 million people) had a total GDP of $1,133 billion in 2005 (at purchasing power parity), ranking as the second-largest urban agglomeration GDP in the world after the Tokyo urban area.
