History of the Hungarian Community in Toronto

Krystyna Cap has compiled an excellent article for Heritage Toronto detailing the history of the Hungarian community in Toronto.  The Hungarian community has, throughout its history, endeavoured to maintain a strong, vibrant, and sustainable Magyar community that caters to Toronto 50,000 or more Hungarians. While a distinct Hungarian part of Toronto has greatly diminished over the years, the community faces new challenges within a fast-changing city. Please review the link below for Ms. Cap’s detailed overview of one of Toronto’s many great cultures.
