People didn’t move to Toronto from Montreal because it’s more affordable. They moved because of the language laws that make English speakers second class at best in Quebec.

Weren’t those passed in the 1990s? I thought businesses moved their headquarters out of Montreal in the 60s and 70s with the threat of separation (and FLQ bombings).
I didn’t mean to claim that Toronto was more affordable than Montreal, simply that Toronto previous affordability allowed it to become what it is today.

It was more about the Quebec independence referendum. Before that, Montreal was the economic capital of Canada.

If New York is the City that never sleeps, Toronto is the city that has a 11pm bedtime.
This line is said exclusively by people who walk down Bay Street and think that’s the whole city.
Toronto has tonnes of its own character, and calling it “empty” makes me think you’ve never spent any time in it.
