	Humber River, Toronto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Humber River is one of two major rivers on either side of Toronto, the other being the Don River to the east.

		Today the majority of the Toronto portion of the Humber is parkland, with paved trails running from the lakeshore all the way to the northern border of the city some 30 km away.
