I hear some cities call the larger area as metro (Vancouver) and other cities call it greater (Toronto). Is there a functional difference? Generally speaking, is one more urbanized than the other?

From my basic understanding
Greater = the area including and around a city
Metro = the parts of a community within some sort of combined local government
