a quote from the story...

The WTJHS is inviting community groups, businesses and organizations to participate in its centennial celebration of the amalgamation of the City of West Toronto that took place in 1909. This event is a celebration of the original festivities that took place 100 years ago at Humberside Collegiate Institute as West Toronto citizens counted down the minutes until their young city became part of the larger City of Toronto.
