What large company was based in Toronto before the 1970?

CN, CP, Air Canada, BMO, Royal Bank, Seagrams, were all based in Montreal. If you travelled to Canada in either the steamship era or the early jet era you were almost certainly arriving in Montreal. When Canada hosted a centennial world’s fair it was in Montreal. When Canada hosted its first Olympics it was in Montreal. When Canada got its first baseball team it was in Montreal.

Toronto was a Milwaukee.
