The 2020 Urban Science Symposium is a very meaningful conference.
Toronto is the largest city in Canada and the fourth largest city in North America. She has a rich history of municipal construction for nearly 150 years. In the early days, as part of British colony, and New York State, where New York City is located is on the other side of Lake Ontario; The east is close to the entire New England region, and the west is connected to the Midwest through the Great Lakes.
Therefore, the urban development of Toronto is deeply influenced by the British tradition of the colonial home country, and at the same time closely follows the pace of modernization development in North America.
Toronto, as a technology, culture and population center in Canada and North America. It has distinctive features in urban construction. It is of great significance in urban planning and research.
This time dozens of international experts on urban planning came to the conference. Bring international high-level research work related to urban planning, exchange with each other, fully explore, and seek cooperation.
Such academic activities will definitely promote the development of relevant research in the international and Toronto areas.
The inspection of Toronto's municipal construction arranged by the conference will surely give rise to new scientific research growth points for experts in the comparison.
I also hope that experts will make forward-looking academic preparations for this new era of urban construction projects for the smart home, autonomous driving, intelligent office, artificial intelligence robot production, and office environment in the coming 2020s.
Finally, I wish the conference a complete success!

多伦多国际城市大会是一个非常有意义的大会。
多伦多是加拿大最大城市，北美第四大城市。有着近150年的市政建设的丰富历史。早期作为英属殖民地的重镇与美国纽约市所在的纽约州隔安大略湖相望、东部与整个新英格兰地区临近、西部通过五大湖和美国中西部相连。
所以多伦多的城市发展深受殖民地母国英国的传统影响，同时又紧紧跟随整个北美现代化发展的步伐。
多伦多，作为加拿大和北美的一个科技文化和人口的中心。在城市建设上有鲜明的特点。在城市规划和研究上有重要的意义。
这次几十位国际有关城市规划的专家到来参会。带来城市规划有关的国际高水平的研究工作，互相交流、充分探讨、谋求合作。
这样的学术活动必将推动国际和多伦多地区有关方面的研究长足发展。
大会安排的对多伦多市政建设的考察，必将为各位专家在对比中发生新的科学研究生长点。
也希望各位专家通过本次大会为即将到来的2020年代呼之欲出的智能家居、自动驾驶化交通、智能办公、人工智能机器人生产、办公的新时代城市建设课题做出有前瞻性的学术准备。
最后，预祝大会圆满成功！
