In the nineteenth century, a large-scale sewage system was made, illuminating the streets with gas lighting as a regular service.

By the 1980's, Toronto's population became a lot bigger compared to Montreal, and during the year 1954, Toronto City and several twelve nearby municipalities were federated into a regional government called Metropolitan Toronto.
