The Fuzzy Boundaries neighbourhood naming group has organized a fun event that doesn't really have anything to do with neighbourhood names, but is certainly worth checking out:
November 12 Special screening at 6:45 p.m. of the NFB documentary The Travellers at the Perth/Dupont location of the Toronto Public Library (1589 Dupont). The film tells the story of Canada's first folk group which included a longtime neighbourhood resident. If you remember the song "This Is Your Land, This Our Land" you will know The Travellers. Come early, seating is limited.

Retro '90s Canadiana
I recently borrowed the NFB documentary about the Travellers, as I unfortunately missed the screening at the library. I couldn't help reminiscing about these two '90s Canadian songs:
