  • 6 7 a Moving Story About Immigrants from a Country That Has Always Been
    A moving story about immigrants from a country that has always been a magnet for immigrants, with Joe and Lorenzo Di Donato as our wonderful hosts. All in all, an ideal combination for a very special kind of city portrait: My Toronto Books and films often dramatize Canada’s wide-open spaces: the unspoilt natural environment, the untamed wilderness. Indeed, in terms of area, the country is the second-largest in the world. And at the same time, one of the most sparsely populated. Statistically speaking, just under four inhabitants share one square kilometre of land between them. Admittedly, in YYZ (Toronto airport’s interna- tional code), where we have just safely landed, things look different. Completely different. Toronto is a fascinating global metropolis, enthused Joe and Lorenzo Di Donato, when they persuaded us to pay them a visit. During our descent to the city, with its 2.6 million population, the view from the airplane window certainly looked very promising. The clock shows noon as we enjoy the feeling of terra firma under our feet after eight-and-a-half hours above the clouds. We enter the terminal to a typically warm Italian welcome from our hosts. 6 7 You need a good start to the day, advise Joe and Lorenzo, when they perfect coffee, coupled with a vision for giving coffee spe cialities their pick us up next morn ing in the hotel lobby. And even before we can rightful place in a new world, inspired our father to estab lish his own think about breakfast, we find ourselves whisked to an imposing business specializing in the import of coffee machines.

    What’s Out There? Toronto - 1 - What’s Out There - Toronto The Guide The Purpose “Cultural Landscapes provide a sense of place and identity; they map our relationship with the land over time; and they are part of our national heritage and each of our lives” (TCLF). These landscapes are important to a city because they reveal the influence that humans have had on the natural environment in addition to how they continue to interact with these land- scapes. It is significant to learn about and understand the cultural landscapes of a city because they are part of the city’s history. The purpose of this What’s Out There Guide-Toronto is to identify and raise public awareness of significant landscapes within the City of Toron- to. This guide sets out the details of a variety of cultural landscapes that are located within the City and offers readers with key information pertaining to landscape types, styles, designers, and the history of landscape, including how it has changed overtime. It will also provide basic information about the different landscape, the location of the sites within the City, colourful pic- tures and maps so that readers can gain a solid understanding of the area. In addition to educating readers about the cultural landscapes that have helped shape the City of Toronto, this guide will encourage residents and visitors of the City to travel to and experience these unique locations. The What’s Out There guide for Toronto also serves as a reminder of the im- portance of the protection, enhancement and conservation of these cultural landscapes so that we can preserve the City’s rich history and diversity and enjoy these landscapes for decades to come.

    I am organizing this as an individual. You agree to take all responsibility for your own safety. I have ridden this route last year and have found it to be mostly trails and calmer side streets, but I can't guarantee that you won't have troubles. This booklet will get you around the city. There is a 35 km, 65 km, 85 km, and 115 km route (so I lied that it was 100km). The turn sheets will help you with the route that you choose.
