Funny (or maybe not so funny!), Toronto used to be called "Toronto the Good". Compared to many American cities, even compared to Montreal, Toronto was staid, quiet, and (most of all) ~clean~. Every so often some American tourist would send a letter to the editor to one of our newspapers waxing rhapsodic about how much cleaner our city was than theirs. Now that's a distant memory.
