Great Web site! I was born in Weston in 1950. There used to be a little hospital on the South-East corner of John St and Rosemount Ave. and that is where it all began for me. If you walk beside the house on John Street and look up you will see carved in stone the name of the hospital. I will leave the name a mystery so some of you will look. I left the Weston Area in the mid 70′s and have always missed this town as I got older. Thanks for the memories that your web site has given me.

Hi there,
My great-grandfather lived in Weston, Ontario on Keele Street at Rogers Road during World War Two. Just around the corner on Rogers Rd, there was a factory that was converted to an ammunition factory during the war. Apparently my Great Grandfather just walked around the corner and worked in that factory. Part of his job was to take old used and rusted nails [which were in very short supply], remove the rust and straightened the bent nails to be reused.
He was born in 1875 and died in either July or August of 1950. His name was Robert Draper. Is there any way to find out what the names of the factories that were converted – I thought maybe we might be able to track down the company name and see if it is still around. Or find old pictures or something like that. He also wrote a poem about the war and homefront contributions. He mentions working and buying victory bonds. I have attached a scanned copy of the poem.
Anything you could do to help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much

Just dropping you a line to let everyone know that the Weston Historical Society has stepped up its presence on Facebook. As well as providing information on upcoming meetings, we are now uploading some of our archival photos of Weston. We also so far have one video compilation of images of Weston’s old streetcars, done to the tune of ‘the cling-clang blues’ which was originally sung for the retirement of the old Weston Road streetcars in September 1948.
We are hoping to fire up more interest in Weston, and we are also encouraging anyone who has old photos, movies, memorabilia, or memories of their own pertaining to Weston to feel free to upload them to our Facebook site. “History kept hidden is history lost” so lets try to keep Weston’s past alive and not just become a fading memory.
I would like to request a change in name for one of the Dental offices you have listed in your Business Directory.
Dr Muna Elsadiq has sold the practice and the new name of the Dental Office is Mosaic Dental. The tel # is 416 243 6444.
We are happy to be a part of the Weston Village family and look forward to serving the beautiful Weston Community.
We would like to announce ourselves to the Community with a small give-away event at the corner of Weston and Lawrence and would like to know who we need to contact to arrange and get permission for this. we would deeply appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Thank you and we hope to create and sustain long term rewarding relationships all the businesses around us.
