MOUNT OLIVE-SILVERSTONE-JAMESTOWN

'Mount Olive-Silverstone-Jamestown' is part of the Rexdale neighbourhood in the northwest area of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Some new residents to Toronto and some new immigrants to Canada are attracted to this neighbourhood, mainly because there is a large amount of affordable public housing. The racial make-up of the neighborhood is mainly African Canadian, with a few other small pockets of Hispanics, Asians, and Whites.
In May 2006, Toronto Police apprehended 106 members of the "Jamestown Crew" in the largest gang sweep in Toronto's history. In total, there were over 1,000 charges laid in the anti-gang offensive called ''Project XXX''.^[1]
