WARNING: Rude words on the Audio track to this video.
The Jane-Finch community
Has one of the largest concentrations of criminal gangs of any area in Canada. Gang activity among youths within the area has reached an epidemic state. At one point, the local gangs in Jane and Finch were united under the Bloods card (Police believe that gangs such as the Trife Kids and "Jane Finch Killaz" or JFK used to be some of the earliest Blood sets in Jane and Finch, although residents adamantly deny their existence), but after a few conflicts amongst hardcore members from different factions, along with new alliances being forged with roaming gang members from Rexdale, that unity was nilled.

Now youths from Up-Top neighbourhoods (Shoreham, Driftwood Court and Gosford Blvd.) do not venture into complexes in the "down bottom" section of Finch Ave. West (Yellowstone, Grandravine and Grassways) ; which are regarded as territory of the Bloods where as complexes north of Finch Ave. West and along Jane Street claim allegiance to the Crips gang. Other note worthy communities are the Palisades and Tobermory.

A drive from the west toward the east across Toronto, past the CN Tower, during the G20 Riots. Nice and quiet, due to all the city's exit and entry routes being blocked off.

Another stunning cinematic wonderment from MPI.
You're building up quite the catalog.

Apparently magnumpi is actually a p.i. Hopefully he'll post a video about what it's like to be a private investigator. It would be great to see a car chase or a gunfight or something exciting like that.

Re: Canadian Everyday Regular Normal Life
Could we have something on Canadian toasters.?..
No matter how hard I try I never seem to get my toast "just right". I'm wondering if there's a trick to it this side of the pond....

The traffic is totaly unrepresentative of the Gardiner on any normal day, and as Toronto has pretty much vowed never to host a similar event again it will never be like that again....

The Scarborough, Ontario, Ribfest and Multicultural Festival.
The Scarborough Twilight Rotary Club, the Agincourt Rotary Club, the North Scarborough Rotary Club and the Scarborough Bluffs Rotary Club together hosted a Multicultural Festival. A weekend of music, dance and poetry from around the World. Throughout the day, amateur and professional groups presented live entertainment.
This outdoor Feel the Connection "Free Admission" event was part of the Canada Day celebrations and kicked off summer on a large outdoor stage where performances ran from 11:00 am to 9:30 pm throughout the weekend.
The Beer Tent was a popular place to relax.

You must give magnumpi points for persistence and not being easily embarrassed or put off by sarcasm and insults.
