AbstractToronto has been the ‘city that works’. Local government, including Metropolitan Toronto, has succeeded in solving urban problems. Growth is now reaching outward so that nearly half of the population of Toronto (four million) lies beyond Metro's borders. Politicians foster multiculturalism in this ethnically diverse city. Citizen groups have been active in promoting a wide range of social programmes. Policies attempt to guide the restructuring of the economy. Land-use planning now encourages increasing densities to enhance transit. Active controls over the environment are in place. Growth will probably be slower in the future.
