Toronto (i/təˈrɒntoʊ, -tə/,local /təˈrɒnoʊ, ˈtrɒ-/) is the most populous city in Canada, the provincial capital of Ontario, and the centre of the Greater Toronto Area, the most populous metropolitan area in Canada. In the 2011 census, Toronto had a population of 2,615,060, making it the fourth most populous city in North America, after Mexico City, New York City, and Los Angeles. An alpha global city, Toronto is an international centre of business, finance, arts, and culture, and is widely recognized as one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world.
Aboriginal peoples have inhabited the area now known as Toronto for thousands of years. The urban history of the city dates back to 1787, when British officials negotiated the Toronto Purchase with the Mississaugas of the New Credit. They established the Town of York, and later designated it as the capital of Upper Canada. During the War of 1812, the town was the site of the Battle of York and suffered heavy damage by U.S. troops. York was renamed and incorporated as the City of Toronto in 1834, and became the capital of the province of Ontario in 1867. The original borders of Toronto were expanded through amalgamation with surrounding municipalities at various times in its history, the results of which can been seen in the 140 independently unique and clearly defined official neighbourhoods that make up the city.

After they formed under the name Pectoralz, Guy Berryman joined the group as a bassist and they changed their name to Starfish.Will Champion joined as a drummer, backing vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, completing the line-up. Manager Phil Harvey is often considered an unofficial fifth member. The band renamed themselves "Coldplay" in 1998, before recording and releasing three EPs: Safety in 1998, Brothers & Sisters as a single in 1999, and The Blue Room in the same year. The Blue Room was their first release on a major label, after signing to Parlophone.
They achieved worldwide fame with the release of the single "Yellow" in 2000. This was followed by their debut album Parachutes released the same year, which was nominated for the Mercury Prize. The band's second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002), was released to critical acclaim and won multiple awards, including NME's Album of the Year. Their next release, X&Y, the best-selling album worldwide in 2005, was met with mostly positive reviews upon its release, though some critics felt that it was inferior to its predecessor. The band's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008), was produced by Brian Eno and released again to largely positive reviews, earning several Grammy Award nominations and wins at the 51st Grammy Awards. On 24 October 2011, they released their fifth studio album, Mylo Xyloto, which received mixed to positive reviews, topped the charts in over 34 countries, and was the UK's best-selling rock album of 2011.

http://bookinghunter.com Toronto is the largest city in Canada and the provincial capital of Ontario. It is located in Southern Ontario on the northwestern shore of Lake Ontario. The history of Toronto began in the late 18th century when the British Crown purchased its land from the Mississaugas of the New Credit. The British established a settlement there, called the Town of York, which its lieutenant governor, John Graves Simcoe, designated as the capital of Upper Canada. The city was ransacked in the Battle of York during the War of 1812. In 1834, York was incorporated as a city and renamed Toronto. The most important places to visit in Toronto are: Niagara Falls (located an hour and a half away from Toronto, awe-inspiring Niagara Falls attracts visitors from around the world), CN Tow...
Travel video about destination Toronto in Canada. Toronto is a sensational city. Canada’s ‘secret’ capital: boomtown, show town and financial metropolis, clean, safe and with five million inhabitants.Gigantic skyscrapers and with a frenetic lifestyle, Toronto is where many Canadian banks and multi-national companies have their palatial offices of steel and glass built in what was once a waterfront wilderness. The old City Hall was built in 1899 in Victorian style and consists mainly of sandstone. Its Venetian clock tower faces an array of modern skyscrapers and almost opposite is the futuristic looking new City Hall, a symbol of the city’s cosmopolitan flair. It’s easy to become disorientated in Toronto’s Underground City. Most of this subterranean complex extends beneath the financial di...

Toronto is Canada's largest and North America's fourth-largest city. Its multi-cultural population is spread out over the Megacity, but neighborhoods such as China Town, Greektown and Little Italy retain some of their original character. A typical "Hogtown" treat is the Peameal sandwich, available at the Saint Lawrence Market in the Old Town. The city's landmark CN Tower stands in stark contrast to another local icon: The castle-like Casa Loma. Some other famous architectural feats are the Royal Ontario Museum and the Gehry-designed Art Gallery of Ontario. Kensington Markets is an art-loving, 70s-inspired neighborhood full of shops. Upscale fashion stores surround Dundas Square, the downtown end of Yonge Street. During colder months, the city's huge underground mall, the PATH, offers hou...

What are thoughts made of? In a series of guided meditations author Jeff Warren will help audience members tease apart the elements of thought, introducing them to their own unique patterns of thinking and feeling, every bit as individual as their fingerprints. Jeff Warren (http://www.jeffwarren.org/) is a writer, broadcaster, public speaker, and all-purpose enthusiast. His primary subject is the mind – the cutting-edge of neuroscience and philosophy – made fun and accessible. He is the author of The Head Trip: Adventures on the Wheel of Consciousness (Random House 2007), an acclaimed travel guide through sleeping, dreaming and waking consciousness that critics called “exhilarating,” “enchanting,” “audacious,” “hilarious,” “mind-blowing” and even “visionary,” though perhaps that was a typ...
Mrs. Joy Smith (Kildonan—St. Paul, CPC) moved that Bill C-310, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (trafficking in persons), be read the second time and referred to a committee. She said: Madam Speaker, today I am pleased to rise and speak to my private member's bill, Bill C-310, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (trafficking in persons). This bill follows my previous bill, Bill C-268, which created Canada's child trafficking offence with stiff penalties for individuals trafficking a minor in Canada. Having received royal assent on June 29, 2010, Bill C-268 is now law and is being used across Canada, most recently in a case right here in Ottawa. Bill C-268 was supported by members from multiple parties in the last Parliament. I want to take a moment to thank the members fr...

[kung fu sample overlapped by intro:]
You wanna help? It's your duty
If it is our duty, what if our shift comes in for while?
What were you thinking?
I was thinking... you're an expert
[Intro: Kevlaar 7]
Yeah... Kevlaar 7, Bronze Nazareth
Fucking with... yo, yo, aiyo...
[Kevlaar 7:]
Live from the home that birthed Al Green
I bring more heat that grits in third degree seams
Queens get ya pot holders, I'm brolic as novas
Jehovah spoke through me, told y'all it's over
In fact I crack the canyon inside ya Earth
And casted my shadow on the last man standing
Branded his brain, uncandidly crack/cocaine
Clever ruffian, my nation equits me to shame
Contained within my own concrete jungles
Streets crumble, trouble, blood heat bubbles
Type O fucker if I need a body double
If my heart valves close like the lens on the Hubble
Impossible, I play dominoes on top of live volcanoes
Sit lava with a mouth of gasoline, pages
Ageless flow, I'm in history pages next to James Monroe
With a gat to his dome
Watch the lava shot blow, recite pharaohistic poems
Hieroglyphics show, yo the crypt is my home
Inside I construct authentic kinetic gold
Interlacing you bitches with visionary flows
[Chorus: Bronze Nazareth]
Aiyo live from the landfills, my thoughts they can kill
Like stones and anvils, cats they close landmills
Cats flows on standstill, grams, noses, sandpills
Stand close to God, but how could a man build?
[Bronze Nazareth:]
Aiyo, live from Motown, Gun Rule, Hellbound
Sell pounds to sale, vibrant rhythm and soundscape
Break thoughts in place, my words sour the taste
Scrolls is old gold, rivers are concrete waste
Kill you where the swans meet
I wouldn't do it but I'm just trying to eat
Cold as my environment's heat
Sat on mountains, drunk in the hills with gypsies
Love South Central Cartel, it's hard to miss me
Face in your history texts, reflects from slaves
Specs like Ray Charles seeing from his grave
He said, "Bronze, you could hear the color of clouds
Or see the sound of existence like brail printed out"
Pops was a soldier, M-16's hit him
I've walked with the pain of a thousand suicide victims
Bleed misery and hope on the same page
Soak in the same rain, smoke in my ribcage
[Chorus]
[Girl:]
This is Thought for Food, nigga
Get it nigga, get it nigga, get it...
[George Carlin sample:]
