Jane and Finch may not be an official neighbourhood, but it truly is a neighbourhood. If it isn't, then Church and Wellesley isn't either. Blackjays 03:05, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
The Showcasing the Black Creek West Community Working Group is one of five working groups that are a part of the Black Creek West Community Capacity Building Project. This project is funded by the City of Toronto and focuses on “improving the quality of life for residents living in the Black Creek West (Jane-Finch) community by placing emphasis on building on assets and capacities, prevention, community involvement, diversity and community well-being.”
Our working group’s goal is to “create a new and valued image of the BCW community by using the media to profile and market aspects of the community locally and nationally.”
Jane-Finch is a community that is often negatively portrayed and stereotyped within the media. Our working group identified that the information presented on Wikipedia in June 2006 was an unbalanced portrayal of the Jane-Finch community. As a result, we have made some major editorial changes to the information in order to present a more balanced description of this community.
