OBS

Le 1er janvier 1998, les municipalités et [les] villes jadis comprises dans «la communauté urbaine de Toronto» (entité géographique) / «la Communauté urbaine de Toronto» (entité administrative ou personne morale), souvent désignée «le Grand Toronto» ou, à tort parce que ne désignant pas le même territoire, «le Toronto métropolitain» (qui englobe également les municipalités en périphérie), sont fusionnées pour donner la nouvelle «ville de Toronto», marquant la fin de l'existence de l'administration régionale antérieure.

OBS

Un nom de ville est féminin même s'il n'est pas accompagné du pseudo-générique «ville». On dit au masculin «Grand Toronto» et «Toronto métropolitain» parce que l'on signifie alors un district, un territoire qui n'est peut-être pas le même que celui que comprend la «communauté urbaine de Toronto», l'entité légalement constituée.
