High Park-Swansea: Lake Shore Boulevard near Ellis Avenue
Old Toronto sits on the north shore of Lake Ontario in Ontario, Canada, where Lake Shore Boulevard West follows the city’s waterfront. This address lies at Ellis Avenue, in the western part of the former City of Toronto, a municipality amalgamated into today’s Toronto in 1998. The broad boulevard is an important east–west urban corridor between waterfront neighbourhoods and the lakefront park system. Nearby Sunnyside Beach forms part of Toronto’s public shoreline, while the Martin Goodman Trail provides a continuous route for walking and cycling along much of the waterfront. Sunnyside Pavilion, built in 1922, recalls the area’s long role as a recreation district.

Built around the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence water system, Ontario grew into Canada’s most populous province. Its vast northern interior lies on the Canadian Shield, a terrain of exposed rock, boreal forest and innumerable lakes, while the south concentrates most cities and farms along the Great Lakes. Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario give the province an exceptional freshwater horizon; Niagara Falls is its best-known natural landmark. Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, is a major cultural and economic centre, while Algonquin Provincial Park, founded in 1893, represents a long tradition of protected wilderness.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
