According to a new study by TonerGiant, Montreal has the fourth most photogenic skyline in Canada. The first place spot, unsurprisingly, went to Toronto, whose iconic view features the CN Tower among a sea of skyscrapers.

To determine a ranking TonerGiant analyzed skyline photos of Canadian cities posted by users on Instagram with the hashtag #skyline to find out which city received the most likes per photo on average. The analysis focused on Instagram accounts with a minimum of 150 followers.

Here’s how the top five tallied up.

In fifth place was Winnipeg with 47 points while Vancouver, whose skyline is nothing to disregard, did not manage to crack the top five.
