Will Toronto get more immigrants, french Canadians, business from it?
Wasn't part of the reason BMO moved to Toronto because of this PQ nonsense?

Yes. I would like to see the GTA catch up to Dallas, the Bay Area and Chicago size wise

Dallas?
Bay Area?
What are you smoking Den? Those cities are a fraction the size of GTA.
I am assuming you are talking about metropolitan area populations, because for City population we have Chicago, Dallas and each individual city in the Bay Area beat (San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose).

Yes, and RBC moved their operating headquarters here for the same reason, though they still maintain their (severely diminished) corporate HQ in MTL.
I don't think it will do anything to raise Toronto's economic success or lower Montreal's. The immigrant groups that are being targeted don't exactly carry the same sway as the wealthy Anglo business owners of the 1970s.
Yes. the metropolitan.
I really want draw some french Canadians here as well.
Sorry, I meant metropolitan areas. Not city propers.
I agree. If there is an exodus from Quebec this will not be like the 1970's when a large segment of the influential Anglo population fled to Toronto bringing business headquarters and jobs with them. If there is an exodus from Quebec it will be by members of the strict Islamic communities where women are forced to wear niqabs and burkas. Many if not most in these communities came to Canada as refugees. If there is a massive exodus of these people from Quebec to Ontario I don't see any benefit for Toronto - just the opposite. Toronto is already straining under the burden of providing free social services to various refugee groups that settle in Toronto by the 10,000's each year!
