Diversity in Toronto
You’ll see every nation represented in this truly multicultural city. No place more than in Kensington and St Lawrence markets, where food and people from all over come together. Jamaican pattie shops squeeze up next to Chilean empanada cantinas, Ethiopian spice shops and everything else you could imagine in Kensington; the most fantastic rotation of street music provides a wonderful soundtrack too. In St Lawrence Market you’ll find every type of cured meat, olive, cheese, bagel, sweet treat, condiment, meat and produce from all over the world. Chinatown and Little India are lots of fun too. And while Toronto is known for the diversity of its immigration, we particularly enjoyed seeing Canada’s original culture in action at the Treadright Storyboot Project in the Bata Shoe Museum when we watched First Nations women teach indigenous youth to make traditional moccasins. .
