Description
Tour participants learn about the postwar settlement of the Greek community along Danforth Avenue. At Alexander the Great Square, located in a parkette named for the legendary warrior, they learn about past tensions in Toronto over the naming and ethnic origins of the historical figure, which are tied to the lengthy dispute about the name of the new country (now North Macedonia) formed after the breakup of the former Yugoslavia.
