Thanks for making this video, and the other images you posted previously. They helped me appreciate how many skyscrapers and high-rises Toronto has (I had expected fewer). Easily one of North America's top five skylines, possibly #3 as someone else said, but IMO it needs a supertall skyscraper, not tower, that really dominates. First Canadian Place is just a little taller than Scotia Plaza and Aura at College Park, and in 2021 The One will be barely taller than First Canadian Place. Perhaps Toronto is just too satisfied with CN Tower, but again it's a tower, not a skyscraper. We are all skyscraper enthusiasts here, not tower enthusiasts. It would be much nicer to have a very prominent skyscraper, which probably would need to be at least 400 m.
Let me make it clear that I am not bashing Toronto. As I said, its skyline is one of the most impressive in North America. What I am saying that it could be even better, by having a supertall skyscraper that really stands out.
