Generations project breaks ground in Toronto | Celebrating 50: Episode #2

This week, a series of special events are taking place across the country to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the significant presence of the Jamat in Canada. Over the past five decades, Jamati members from various parts of the world have made Canada their permanent home, while notably contributing to its rich cultural mosaic and vibrant civil society.
Mursal Bahri hosts the second instalment of Celebrating 50, an Ismaili TV special going behind the scenes at the commemorative events taking place across Canada this week.
Episode two includes highlights from the groundbreaking ceremony of Generations Toronto, a multi-generational housing development close to the Ismaili Centre in Toronto. Distinguished guests included Prince Amyn, Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Toronto’s Mayor John Tory and local and national leaders of the Jamat.
Based on a successful pilot project launched in Calgary during Mawlana Hazar Imam’s Golden Jubilee in 2007, Generations Toronto is a unique community campus that will offer services to bring together and support its residents and neighbours. Its fundamental premise is to enhance the value and dignity of human life.
