"Toronto's is $7.6 billion CDN. That covers a population of 2.5 million."
That's the operating budget...the capital budget is another $1.25 billion.
But of course, there are other city spin-off corporations that operate separately...like Toronto Hydro, Toronto Port Authority (a crown corporation), etc.
Municipal budgets are misleading, as it depends on what services they include and don't include. Many things may not be owned or operated by the municipal corporation.
