City Council Chronicles Special Episode: Best Thing, Worst Thing -- Toronto, ON

City Council Chronicles

We visit Toronto, the largest city in Canada. We crash a butter tart bakeoff at a fancy hotel, watch senior citizens play lawn bowling, and listen to blues on the sidewalk. We also hear from an immigrant, a city councilor, and pastry chefs. This is a special episode in an occasional series about towns and cities. Different people answer the same two questions: what is the best thing about this place? And what is the worst thing about this place?
