The Ultimate Jamaica to Ontario Collection

This room celebrates the vibrant legacy of Jamaican immigrants who settled across Ontario—not just in Toronto, but also in cities like Hamilton, London, Windsor, Ottawa, and beyond. The Ultimate Jamaica to Ontario Collection features reggae, ska, rocksteady, dancehall, dub, and hip-hop from the artists and communities that carried island rhythms into Canadian hearts and dancehalls. From early sound systems to national airplay, this music reflects resilience, identity, and joy—an irie tribute to the Jamaican-Canadian experience across the province.
