There is a short article in today’s Metro (Toronto edition) headlined “Richmond Hill makes ‘A’ list,” with that suburb of Toronto being one of “six Canadian cities that are the best at attracting new residents.” The sidebar, “Toronto’s failings,” says that “Toronto was held back by too few doctors, too many smog alert days and too many people living in poverty.”
While I have nothing against Richmond Hill, many (most) of the people I know who’ve lived there have used Toronto hospitals (therefore doctors), and tend to drive to jobs downtown, hence contributing to the smog problems.
My (urban) two cents’ worth. (Link to be added later, and I’ll also be looking for other coverage.)
