  • Bathurst Manor
    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 31, 2021 181 Donna Bernardo-Ceriz A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor 182 Donna Bernado-Ceriz / A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor How does one tell the story of a neighbourhood? If examining the changing and de- veloping physical landscape, then records are in no short supply at various govern- ment archives: census records, municipal planning records, maps, assessment roles, directories, building surveys, and aerial photographs, to name only a few. Retelling the experiences of a community of people, however, requires a slightly different re- search strategy. Personal papers, photographs, letters, home movies, and oral histo- ries offer a glimpse into the lives of residents. Organizational records can provide insight into the cultural, religious, and social needs of a community and the services offered. But what if those records do not exist or cannot easily be located? The Ontario Jewish Archives (OJA) receive over 650 research requests each year. If we divide that by the number of working days (ignoring vacations, stat, and Jewish hol- idays), that equals 2.5 inquiries every day. Some of these inquiries are fairly quick and straightforward, and some are long, protracted research endeavours. We also receive over 50,000 unique users to our website each year; researchers whom we never in- teract with and whose research we never hear about. Of these research requests, a sizable number are related to Jewish spaces and shifting landscapes. “I’m researching the history of Kensington Market”; “Do you have any records on The Ward?”; “I’d like to study the small communities in Ontario”; “I’m interested in how Bathurst Street became the spine of Toronto’s Jewish community.” While these questions may appear well defined, it is the archivist’s job to determine what the researcher is actually asking.

For: myself. There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one’s self. II INTRODUCTION/ABSTRACT From its humble origins as a rural country road to its present form as a suburban arterial, the Keele Street Corridor - stretching from Wilson Avenue to Grandravine Drive - has long served the transportation and day-to-day needs of North York and Toronto residents. The following study presents the corridor as it was, as it is, and as it could be. Through a series of recommendations, this report intends to offer a vision of the corridor as an urbanized, livable, and beautiful corridor in keeping with the Official Plan’s Avenues policies and based on the following principles: Locating new and denser housing types that encourage a mix of use, make efficient use of lands, frame the right-of-way, are appropriately massed and attractively designed.

  • Ethnic Grocery Retailers and Perceptions of Food Access in Humbermede, Toronto
    DISRUPTING THE FOOD DESERT/OASIS BINARY: ETHNIC GROCERY RETAILERS AND PERCEPTIONS OF FOOD ACCESS IN HUMBERMEDE, TORONTO MICHAEL CHROBOK A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN GEOGRAPHY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO September 2014 © Michael Chrobok, 2014 Abstract Contemporary studies of food accessibility often disregard ‘ethnic’ grocery retailers as sources of food or assume them to be attractive to all individuals. This body of research also frequently frames access as an issue of spatial proximity to grocery stores. Drawing on thirty interviews I conducted with residents of Humbermede, Toronto, I explore how food accessibility is perceived and experienced in a culturally-diverse neighbourhood where the only grocery retailers present are ethnic in nature. I argue that identity-related factors (food preferences, ethnic identification, language, and attitudes towards difference) and aspects of one’s life circumstances (purchasing power, mobility, and location or length of residence) – not merely distance – coalesce to influence understandings of one’s food retail environment and one’s store patronage decisions. These findings suggest that food shoppers are not homogenous, that all retailers are not equally attractive to all consumers, and that food accessibility has critical socio-cultural, economic, and spatiotemporal components. ii Dedication For my late Nana, who sparked my interest in food accessibility. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank the thirty residents of Humbermede, Toronto who took the time out of their busy schedules to share their perspectives with me during interviews. Their insights were invaluable and made this thesis possible.

Expand and improve Service and Housing Space 5. Strengthen Leadership through Governance everyone here belongs Message from the Chair of the Board and Executive Director At St. Paul’s L’Amoreaux Centre we are privileged to be serving one of the most diverse communities of older adults in the City of Toronto. Over 3,600 older adults connected with us in 2015- 2016 through services and care, active living programs, and health promotion and education. More than 450 people call this place home. We benefit from collaboration with hundreds of other health professionals and housing professionals who exchange knowledge, advise us, and support our work in numerous ways. The diversity of our staff, clients, caregivers, residents, and volunteers runs the range of languages, ethnicities, races, cultures and faiths.

  • Finch Avenue West and Sheppard Avenue East Corridors - Planning Study Approach
    PG8.9 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Finch Avenue West and Sheppard Avenue East Corridors - Planning Study Approach Date: October 13, 2015 To: Planning and Growth Management Committee From: Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning Division Wards: 1, 7, 8, 33, 39, 40, 41, 42 Reference P:\2015\Cluster B\PLN\PGMC\PG15114 Number: SUMMARY As a result of investment in rapid transit along the Finch Avenue West and Sheppard Avenue East corridors, City Planning initiated a review of these corridors. This report recommends areas for planning study on a priority basis in order to leverage investment in rapid transit and to encourage transit supportive development. The recommended future studies will implement the Official Plan's policy direction to integrate land use and transportation. To prioritize areas along the corridors for future planning study, each corridor was divided into segments and reviewed through three streams of work: corridor profiles consisting of demographics, employment and built fabric; a real estate market conditions study; and a planning overview, social equity scan and case studies of similar rapid transit lines. These three streams of work represent background research in the prioritization process, which was completed in partnership with Metrolinx. The next step involved analyzing findings based on an evaluation matrix, consisting of criteria in four categories: social equity, planning framework, city building objectives and market potential. The final step in this process is a prioritization approach and schedule for conducting future planning studies along each corridor. For the Finch Avenue West corridor, staff recommend that the area around Keele Street and Finch Avenue West be studied first, followed by areas around Jane Street and Finch Avenue West and the area around Albion Mall.
