Not exhaustive, nor complete, this map is a work-inprogress, documenting a community in-transition. For
one afternoon in February 2010, we gathered together
with a group of community members to create two
distinct lists: Sites of Apology and Sites of Hope. The
locations identified as part of these two lists were noted
as being places for which we, as a community, might
need to apologize to future generations, or places for
which we might hold some particular hope of their role
in creating a better city for future generations. Over the
following weeks and months, we gradually visited every
site on the list to (un)officially recognize it, demarcating
it with a large ribbon and saying a few words about its
designation. We encourage you to make your own visit
to these sites.
This project was made possible by the Ontario Arts Council.
