Membership Changes
Over the past decades, waves of immigrants have chosen the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) as home, creating a more vibrant and diverse international city. According to the 2016 Census, immigrants represented 46 per cent of the city’s population. Not surprisingly, TRREB’s membership is a microcosm of GTA residents. And TRREB Members often play a critical role in helping newcomers find a home in Toronto. Finding someone who is from your homeland can make the process of buying a home a lot less worrisome for someone new to Canada.
