The Toronto Files: Kensington Market Sunday

[danieldaring]

these dancers are horrible-offbeat-and the tall dude looks like a spastic loser-someone shoot him and put him out of his misery

[TreasuresTresors]

Hi Garywallawallas, nice video, Toronto’s Kensington Market is well known for its quirky character and diversity. This video might be good for the Canada’s Got Treasures collection, which aims to feature Canadian videos of personal or cultural significance. Help celebrate Canadian diversity by joining our YouTube group (/group/TresorTreasure) and submitting your video. It would be made available on our channel and website.

Hamish,

Wow...some people just don't know how to be happy and enjoy the wonderful things around them!

The only hate I know is of the word hate. "Hatred ever kills, love never dies. Such is the vast difference between the two. What is obtained by love is retained for all time. What is obtained by hatred proves a burden in reality for it increases hatred."

say hi from me to your mom she's a really great cock sucker

if you want you can come and suck it to .

[warmflash]

The dirty hipsters are destroying Toronto. I wish these apes would go back home for good.

[adrianoaguilar]

I totally Agree I hate hippies,

They all say they want to save the planet and all they do is smoke pot and make drum circles

[pom0ify]

@adrianoaguilar I hate hippies too and shake my head when I see these people walking around Kensington, but the world would be a much better place if we all sat around, got high and played drums....

[adrianoaguilar]

Yeah.... actually...... no it wouldnt....

[cloud49g]

This vid really helped me try to explain what a diverse cultural l;ife exists in the city where I have been raised . I Loved it THANKS!!!!

[travelleratheart]

I love kensington!!! It is the best place in Toronto!

[mayaoo]

yayyyy hippies! i love kensington market!

[SonyaNatalia]

There are a lot of strange people doing a lot of strange swearing here....

I am moving to Toronto soon, so I hope the freaks posting here are living somewhere else!!

[mjhs789]

You're lame and don't deserve to live in such an amazing city.

[maxguaverra]

I'm moving to Toronto in September, and this place looks like my kinda place!!! I'd be in the middle of that circle dancing away!! Can't wait to be around some chilled out, open-minded people....

[cycimian]

max i hope you do., or at least vacation in the areas ajoining toronto as well. Oakville notice the Caps has its festivals along with Burlington., Most the communitys have sponsored events in summer., Go for it man.

[25Nick94]

yea good luck finding open minded ppl

[PintoPonyProductions]

@maxguaverra Kensigton is the only artisic and laid back hood in T.O. It's dodgy but I love it. I recently moved to T.O and found the mentality in the rest of the city is creepily conservative and old fashioned.  Not a world class city like we all pretend. Move to Kensigton if you like art and creative people!

[syea99]

HAHAHAHAHAA dierty fucking hippies

[edanscime]

Everyone needs to calm down and stop paying any attention to this one bigot who felt the need to fuck shit up with all of his comments. He doesn't matter. Kensington is amazing, Toronto is amazing, and I enjoyed this video.

[novaterm]

LOL what small minded people have been posting here. Kensington Market rocks! Fresh food, history, music. Racism has no place here fools. Remember most of us are all immigrants in our ancestory. This was and is a mecca still for people moving from oppression and injustice. What gives you the right to place judgement on peopel trying to make a better life. Remember natives were here first while your family was prolly making houses out of dung piles at the time, looking for a better life. Asshat!

[esakaia]

I pity you and I pity the fact that you're being pitied over the internet for your adolescent underdevelopped mind. I admire your passion, I guess if you actually had something new to say that didn't fall under overused bigotry I'd say you might be somewhat convincing. But alas you probably just regurgitate what your mommy and daddy say at the dinner table and crawl back to your desktop and try and make sense out of something that is so inherently the rheuminations of ignorance.

[novaterm]

NAZI!

[esakaia]

I'm none of those, but in this case I wish I was just so I can fit into one of your categories to make your verbal diarhea more convincing, because although you may be attempting some sort of newstand slander I simply wished to have a discussion with you but I have now realized that you're just simply angry and like to vent on youtube.

[esakaia]

As for sophistication and style... if you're looking to the breed of narcissism then go down to the clubbing district you'll find plenty of tits and ass spilling out of the style from the 80's. And I guess if you think Toronto is a shithole full of niggers, pakis and chinks you're pretty much referring to a multiculturalism that you shit racism over and this really isn't the place for you so you. But then again you probably like to bathe in your own "immaculate" pontifications.

[reryioydryd097]

toronto is a shithole, filled with scum

"munticulturalism" is a scam

are you a nigger, paki, a chink or a flaming faggot?

Toronto is where the scum of the earth hide

and the niggers in tornto shoot eachother every week

[reryioydryd097]

you really are not superior to people

no amount of jewish doctrine from your favorite prof or egalitarian bullshit will make you anything more than the piece of shit you were born

[esakaia]

I don't really understand why people criticize kensington market based on values that the market doesn't adhere to. You cannot evaluate something based on a criterion that the subject is completely devoid of, it sits outside of these valuations.

[reryioydryd097]

esakaia, you are a fucking idiot

a typical pretentions piece of garbage who lives in Toronto

[michellestinkyass]

i see the user removes all negative comments

Toronto is a shitole, filled with niggers, pakis and chinks, unless you are a piece of garbage why the fuck would you live there

everyone from toronto is scum

[Kronikwisdom]

you might aswell kill yourself with that attitude towards life. go overdose on drugs infront of your shit covered computer desk and re-evaluate your life in eternal darkness, bitch :)

[StaceyJ123]

It's cool for what it is I guess. But it makes me miss the 80s when Toronto was a chic city whose dwellers oozed poise, style and sophistication. There was a distinctly cosmopolitan flare and just a great vibe. Everyone was impeccably dressed at all times and for no reason. Downtown was immaculate. Now, well, it's like this video.

[theactor19]

[njchad]

The festival is part of 'Pedestrian Sundays', the monthly car-free street party that happens during the summer in the market.
