    A Map of Toronto’s Cultural Facilities A Cultural Facilities Analysis 03.01.10 Prepared for: Rita Davies Managing Director of Culture Division of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism Prepared by: ERA Architects Inc. Urban Intelligence Inc. Cuesta Systems Inc. Executive Summary In 1998, seven municipalities, each with its own distinct cultural history and infrastructure, came together to form the new City of Toronto. The process of taking stock of the new city’s cultural facilities was noted as a priority soon after amalgamation and entrusted to the newly formed Culture Division. City Council on January 27, 2000, adopted the recommendations of the Policy and Finance Committee whereby the Commissioner of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism was requested to proceed with a Cultural Facilities Masterplan including needs assessment and business cases for new arts facilities, including the Oakwood - Vaughan Arts Centre, in future years. This report: > considers the City of Toronto’s role in supporting cultural facilities > documents all existing cultural facilities > provides an approach for assessing Toronto’s cultural health. Support for Toronto’s Cultural Facilities Through the Culture Division, the City of Toronto provides both direct and indirect support to cultural activities. Direct support consists of : > grants to individual artists and arts organizations > ongoing operating and capital support for City-owned and operated facilities. Indirect support consists of: > property tax exemptions > below-market rents on City-owned facilities > deployment of Section 37 development agreements. A Cultural Facilities Inventory A Cultural Facility Analysis presents and interprets data about Toronto’s cultural facilities that was collected by means of a GIS (Global Information System) database.

    Multiculturalism and the De-Politicization of Blackness in Canada: the Case of Flow 93.5 Fm

    MULTICULTURALISM AND THE DE-POLITICIZATION OF BLACKNESS IN CANADA: THE CASE OF FLOW 93.5 FM by Kisrene McKenzie A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Kisrene McKenzie 2009 MULTICULTURALISM AND THE DE-POLITICIZATION OF BLACKNESS IN CANADA: THE CASE OF FLOW 93.5 FM Master of Arts 2009 Kisrene McKenzie Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract This thesis presents a case study of Canada‟s first Black owned radio station, FLOW 93.5 FM, to demonstrate how official multiculturalism, in its formulation and implementation, negates Canada‟s history of slavery and racial inequality. As a response to diversity, multiculturalism shifts the focus away from racial inequality to cultural difference. Consequently, Black self-determination is unauthorized. By investigating FLOW‟s radio license applications, programming and advertisements, this thesis reveals just how the vision of a Black focus radio station dissolved in order to fit the practical and ideological framework of multiculturalism so that Blackness could be easily commodified. This thesis concludes that FLOW is not a Black radio station but instead is a multicultural radio station – one that specifically markets a de-politicized Blackness. As a result, multiculturalism poses serious consequences for imagining and engaging with Blackness as a politics that may address the needs of Black communities in Canada. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my deepest gratitude to my thesis supervisor, Dr. Sherene Razack, for her guidance, constant support, encouragement and initial interest in my thesis topic.

    5. Scarborough Centre Secondary Plan

    5. SCARBOROUGH CENTRE SECONDARY PLAN Scarborough Centre is an important mix of retail, government, institutional, cultural, employment and residential uses. The Centre is at the core of an established employment corridor along Highway 401. As a mixed use area, the Scarborough Centre provides both employment and housing opportunities for workers and residents. The Centre is a focal point of transit; at the eastern end of the Scarborough Rapid Transit (SRT) line and at the hub of local and inter- regional surface transit lines. Scarborough Centre is also a destination point for surrounding communities; with a regional mall, municipal and federal government services and a variety of recreational, educational and community services. The Centre has the potential to welcome upwards of 40,000 residents and attract upwards of 23,000 jobs. Major objectives for the Scarborough Centre Secondary Plan, shown on Map 5-1, are to: (a) create a vibrant mix of employment, cultural, institutional, educational, recreational, commercial and residential uses; (b) ensure effective and efficient provision and use of transportation facilities and services; (c) enhance the Centre as a destination focus; (d) promote a high-quality urban form and a comfortable and safe environment; (e) improve open spaces, parks and linkages; (f) protect adjacent residential neighbourhoods; and (g) strengthen community identity. 1. PRINCIPLES FOR SUCCESS: STRATEGIC POLICIES FOR THE SCARBOROUGH CENTRE Policies 1.1 The Centre will be an urban focal point for eastern Toronto where employment, housing, institutional, cultural, recreational, commercial and community services and transit will be concentrated in a dynamic mixed-use location. 1.2 The Centre will accommodate a mix of uses to create an attractive and comfortable environment for residents, workers and visitors to the Centre.

    Inclusive Excellence in Action

    Inclusive Excellence 2019 in Action 2019 Community Partnerships & Engagement Report 1 A WELCOME FROM THE PRINCIPAL At the University of Toronto Scarborough, collaboration is at the core of everything we do. As a campus devoted to inclusive excellence, we can only be successful if we ensure that we have a multiplicity of voices at the table, actively involved in our decision making. By working together across communities, across departments, and across disciplines, feasible ideas emerge that enrich our knowledge and improve our collective results. U of T Scarborough has developed a framework for promoting inclusive, local socio-economic development. Our work is based on a co-created process which enables all participants to dedicate the time, the insights, and the energy needed to support a mutually rewarding partnership. We begin the discussion early to understand our shared objectives and needs, and dig deep so that we address any power imbalances and, hence, foster a truly collaborative relationship. True collaboration means supporting each other’s ideas and making sure the benefits of our efforts are shared equitably. For example, a research partnership with a neighbouring community must be conducted with the goal of positive change for that community, and with the elements of that change defined in partnership with the community. As an anchor institution for the eastern GTA, we are unequivocally committed to leveraging our diverse resources to support the socio- economic development of our local communities. Our collaborative, mutually reinforcing, and reciprocal partnerships provide a valuable mechanism for achieving this goal. Wisdom Tettey, PhD, FGA Vice-President, University of Toronto Principal, University of Toronto Scarborough photo of Wisdom Tettey 2 U OF T SCARBOROUGH’S COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP APPROACH Over the past several years, the University of Toronto Scarborough has shifted its institutional culture so that faculty, staff, and students see themselves as civic actors within the larger community.
