 | | Toronto is a global city, exerting significant regional, national, and international influence, and is one of the world's most multicultural cities. |
 | | Toronto's violent crime rates are extremely low compared to many cities in the US (in 1999, Toronto had 1.3 homicides per 100,000 people compared to Houston's 13.4, Chicago's 15.65 (2004), and Washington, DC's 35.7 (2004) [2]), are comparable to rates in larger European centres, and are low even compared with other Canadian cities. |
 | | Toronto's contract with Michigan lasts until 2008, and includes an option to expand to 2010, but the city is actively seeking options to close the contract sooner. |
