Why Toronto is a Great Place to Study Broadcasting
Toronto is a great city for broadcasting students and professionals to choose to further their education or career because of the city's many features that make it inviting to media. For starters, Toronto is Canada's largest city. The 2.5 million people in Toronto itself and the more than 5 million in the metropolitan area make for a lot of eyes and ears to cater to. As a result, Toronto enjoys 16 television stations and 42 total radio outlets, including station affiliates of CBC, CTV, TVOntario, SRC, Newmarket, and Jack FM, just to name a few. Toronto is the third-largest film and television production centre in North America and the second-largest exporter of television programming. For sports broadcasting enthusiasts, Toronto has a lot to offer, including sports teams such as the Toronto Argonauts (Canadian Football League), Toronto Maple Leafs (National Hockey League), Toronto Blue Jays (Major League Baseball), and Toronto Raptors (National Basketball Association). All these features make for a very diverse, interesting, and strong broadcasting industry in Toronto.
