Toronto building plan to officially recognize Little Jamaica as cultural district
Description
April 27, 2021

Left out of development plans, advocates say the neighbourhood has been forgotten. But now the city and community groups say they're working to change that – building a plan to preserve the rich cultural area. Kayla McLean reports.
