 Immigrants to Canada - Toronto of 1846-7
This account is not unimportant in connection with "the crops of Canada," generally; and it suggests the propriety of presenting to our readers a pair of Engravings of the capital of Canada West, in illustration of the importance of the possessions which Great Britain still retains on the continent of North America.
Toronto is charmingly situated on the margin of Lake Ontario, near its upper or north-western extremity; it recedes from the water with a gentle acclivity commanding a superb view of the great inland sea, and is in the heat of summer cooled and refreshed by its breezes.
In maritime advantages, Toronto has a marked superiority over any other town in Western Canada, having the harbour open at all seasons of the year; while all other localities of the Lakes are fast locked in icy fetters, and remain closed to navigation for three months in the year.
