Toronto will add to its population this year as many people as there are in two towns like Saskatoon. Toronto has a population of 420,- 000 and is growing rapidly.. The opening up of Greater Ontario, the rapid settling of the West, the en- largment of our canal system all combine to make Toronto the most favorably situated city in the Dom- inion. Its growth during the next five years will surpass all past records. We can give valuable information to intending investors as we have made a personal inspection of the different parts of the city.
