Immigrants flooded the city and Toronto’s population shifts to a veritable United Nations. They came for a new beginning in a strange land and brought their skills with them helping to build the railways, the streets and the subway, and transforming the City. Descendants of those who established their homes and businesses in Kensington Market still live in the area and showcase the diversity of ethnicity, race, and religion. See the Toronto 175 category for more episodes.
