It would be difficult to overstate the significance of Victoria Park to London. Not only is it one of the most noteworthy public parks in our increasingly dense city, it is also an important landmark in the development of London. What began as a military encampment has become a preferred gathering place for Londoners and people from across the region. ACO London supports many of the Draft Secondary Plan Principles, including identifying opportunities for intensification, opening up view corridors to Victoria Park, continuing to protect and enhance the park as a downtown amenity, and protecting West Woodfield as a Heritage Conservation District. We also share the vision of many Londoners who wish to protect the park’s environment and trees from too much intensification, instead preserving open sunlight vistas. Part of the charm of London’s Victoria Park is that it remains open and spacious because of the low-rise character of the areas that surround it. The significant shortage of affordable housing across the city, along with the need to stop suburban sprawl, makes intensification a priority. Yet it is important to reiterate that the park is within the West Woodfield Heritage Conservation District. Over-intensification would damage the HCD and set a disturbing precedent for inappropriate intensification in other Heritage Conservation Districts across the city. Furthermore, hyper-intensification of the park perimeter while so many core parking lots are available is irresponsible and unnecessary. There are many opportunities for intensification of surface parking lots throughout the downtown core. ACO cannot support highrises around Victoria Park when there are so many other places on which to build! Therefore, in response to the Draft Principles for the Victoria Park Secondary Plan, ACO will recommend: • a one-block buffer of low and mid-rise buildings surrounding Victoria Park to protect the value and appeal of its historic and ecological vistas. • development of multi-family, high or mid-rise infill on surface parking lots at least a block away from the park.

We went from a team that no one was worried about during the regular season to league championship finalists and a real giant killer in the playoffs; knocking off Kitchener in 7 games, Toronto in 5 games before finally succumbing to Guelph in the finals. It was a great feeling from being the owner of the team, but also from being a fan of the game. I can't even begin to describe the electricity in the air during our home games in the playoffs.

Through my research I have found that both entities follow a very similar timeline with highs and lows coming around the same time in the same province; although, I have not found any direct linkage between the two. My analysis begins around 1837 and continues through present day, and by analyzing the histories of each movement demonstrates clearly that both movements followed a unique and similar timeline.

Abstract While the investigation of nineteenth-century suburbs is a relatively new field in North American social history, the study is particularly neglected in the context of Ontario.
