The Golden Horseshoe is a densely populated and
industrialized region or
urban agglomeration centred around the west end of
Lake Ontario in
Southern Ontario,
Canada. Most of it is also part of the
Windsor-Quebec City corridor. With a population of 8.1 million people, it makes up over a quarter (25.6%) of the population of Canada and contains approximately 75% of Ontario's population, making it one of the largest population concentrations in North America. Although it is a geographically named sub-region of Southern Ontario, Greater Golden Horseshoe is more frequently used today to describe the metropolitan regions that stretch across the area in totality.
