    Residential segregation in Toronto

    A lot is related to pre-migration factors as well. The Caribbean and East African communities are overwhelmingly working class immigrants and refugees. The East African community is the poorest in Toronto. True, Toronto is what would be considered moderately segregated. Ethnic enclaves...

    2019 Canadian Federal Election

    Update on NDP races: Andrew Cash was acclaimed in the fall to run in Davenport. In Danforth, documentary filmmaker Min Sook Lee looks like she's got it as her main opponent dropped out. Nomination meeting is May 30. Parkdale-High Park is the most contested race in the city for the NDP...

    How has gentrification impacted politics in Toronto?

    Saron's political coalition was interesting: her vote largely tailed the progressive middle class vote that Jennifer Keesmaat got, but she also did very in certain public housing areas as well. Many of her best polls have (not surprisingly) sizeable Ethiopian/Eritrean populations (i.e. St...

    How has gentrification impacted politics in Toronto?
