Yeah, cottage country starts about an hour North of the city. Not far at all.

I've only been to Toronto and Providence on this list, but I would imagine that Toronto would win every category.

However, since I also realize that this thread was apparently posted by a Toronto booster who's butthurt because we don't praise Toronto in every thread, I'll vote Providence. If everyone in Toronto is as insecure about his own city as the OP, then Toronto isn't a place I'd like to live.

I wouldn't be too concerned. It only manifests itself on forums like this where the relative merits of cities are discussed.

In real life, Torontonians in Toronto are totally cool big city people to be around and very pleasant for the most part.

Yeah you shouldn't let C-D posters influence your view of a city negatively. If I did that, then I'd hate every city! Even my own. The worst posters I have ever seen by far were in my own home city forum.

OMG, I just thought I'd take a read of what is being said in this thread. Seeing Torontonians posting and curious how boastful over much smaller cities they might be and see THIS post and ROTF. NEED I READ FURTHER NO. LOL

I have no comment on these other cities as I am not familiar with them. But apparently ALL see what Toronto boasters do in threads as YOUR comment to them PROVES. IT AGAIN.

This bunch don't even post in the Toronto forums unless another city is vs then. Had to rep you too, on this oooh soooooo true post.

This is probably true. But you surely know how some Torontonians get in ANY non-praising and high-5s to Toronto others get. It becomes a brag-ga-do-tious fest. Really these other cities are so much smaller for this STAMPEDE of Torontonians.

So far, aside from the bad grammar, you are the only person on this thread who keeps repeating again, again, and again how Torontonians are boastful and boosters of their own city. Grow a pair and get a grip.

Directed at the OP for such a lopsided group of cities. Calling him a Toronto booster not boasted yes. Then adds ----> "Torontonians are boastful and boosters of their own city. Grow a pair and get a grip". The point was to the OP mainly yes. But the in general opinion clearly as "acajack" felt a good response in general was-

I would think you agree? As I have no reason not to. Some posters are far less so? With More, most, better, and superior? In calling things in Canadian (but specifically Toronto) vs. US and its cities threads. That get boasted about.

That thread just being the first I read. Gained my response merely on it.

Lol, Toronto at 35.48%. I guess OP now has to start another thread to whine incessantly about how Americans don't care about Toronto.
