Ottawa, 2007 Canadian Historical Association Canada s Ethnic Group Series Booklet No. 31 A HISTORY OF ETHNIC ENCLAVES IN CANADA INTRODUCTION When we walk through Canadian cities nowadays, it is clear that ethnicity and multicul- turalism are alive and well in many neighbourhoods from coast to coast. One need only amble through the gates on Fisgard Street in Victoria or in Gastown in Vancouver to encounter vibrant Chinatowns, or through small roadways just off Dundas Street in Toronto to happen upon enclaves of Portuguese from the Azores; if you wander through the Côte- des-Neiges district in Montreal you will discover a polyethnic world - Kazakhis, Russian Jews, Vietnamese, Sri Lankans or Haitians among many other groups - while parts ot Dartmouth are home to an old African-Canadian community.

  • 2016 Annual Report
    ANNUAL REPORT Toronto Parent-Child Mother Goose Program 2015 - 2016 December 2, 2016 Toronto Parent-Child Mother Goose Program 720 Bathurst Street, Suite 500A, Toronto, Ontario M5S 2R4 ANNUAL REPORT 2015 - 2016 Toronto Parent-Child Mother Goose Program Originating in Toronto in 1984 as an intervention for families at risk, the Parent-Child Mother Goose Program® is a joyful group experience for parents and their babies or toddlers. When vulnerable, well-meaning parents cannot emotionally bond or expressively communicate with their young children, the parent-child relationships and the children’s futures can be compromised. The Parent-Child Mother Goose Program® intervenes to prevent this outcome with a physically close and interactive program in which parents and children learn to share the power and pleasure of oral rhymes, songs, and stories. The approach is backed by decades of research, yet is so simple and natural that parents effortlessly gain the skills and confidence that foster healthy relationships during their children’s crucial early years, and their children acquire a foundation for lifelong emotional, physical, and cognitive development. The peaks in a child’s brain development for literacy, numeracy, social skills and emotional control all occur from ages one to three. The quality of the primary caregiver’s responsiveness is the most crucial element in this process, and the changes to a child’s brain around this period are unlikely to be reversed. As a result, the return on investment during and close to this period is greater than for any other time in a child’s life. The Parent-Child Mother Goose Program (PCMG) makes a point of embracing newcomers and the rhymes and stories they bring.

  • Earlscourt Youth Centre Parking
    Cesar Palacio City Councillor – Ward 17 • Davenport September 9, 2013 Ms. Rosemary Mackenzie Administrator Etobicoke York Community Council Etobicoke Civic Centre 399 The West Mall, Main Floor Toronto, Ontario M9C 2Y2 Dear Ms. Mackenzie: RE: PARKING LOT ADJACENT TO THE EARLSCOURT YOUTH CENTRE (1200 LANSDOWNE AVENUE) Earlscourt Park is a well-used public space that attracts countless of people each year. It is home to many amenities, which includes a dog off leash park, a new state of the art soccer field, beach volleyball courts, and an indoor gymnasium. Furthermore, the Parks and Recreation programs which are offered at the JJP Recreation Centre, located at 1369 St. Clair Avenue West, are at full capacity and continuingly attract numerous people to the area. In addition, the enrollment at the Earlscourt Youth Centre, located at 1200 Lansdowne Avenue, is continually on the rise and is expected to grow in the future to come. Given the growth and development of this public space, parking and accessibility have become serious issues in the community, as park patrons currently have a great deal of difficulty in finding any suitable parking on Lansdowne Avenue or neighbouring side streets. Presently, the Earlscourt Park wooden stairs at the southwest corner of Davenport Road and Caledonia Road and mid- block on Davenport Road are not accessible to park users, due to its state of disrepair. A new accessible ramp and stairs are scheduled for construction early next year. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the small parking lot adjacent to the Earlscourt Youth Centre located at 1200 Lansdowne Avenue be made available to dog off-leash users, until the accessible ramp / stairs are built and accessible to park users.
