Most Torontonians who move to Hamilton aren't going to quit their jobs for a non-existent job in Hamilton. They're going to commute to Toronto for work - there's no way around that. But at least it increases the population downtown with people who have higher incomes - leading to an economic surge in Hamilton. We've tried to sell downtown to Hamiltonians for many years and it's happening way too slowly. Toronto's helping us move forward much faster.
