Did you know that during the 1970’s, Jane/Finch Community and the whole Black Creek area was a middle-income area? Thirty years later, our community is considered to be one of the lowest income and poorer neighborhoods in Toronto. This sad reality has been documented by numerous researchers. According to a recent report from the Centre for Urban and Community Studies (CUCS) at the University of Toronto, Toronto’s rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer and middle-income neighbourhoods are becoming a minority. The report goes so far as to say that Toronto is no longer a “city of neighbourhoods,” but a “city of disparities.”* http://www.urbancentre.utoronto.ca.
