WHEN TORONTO WAS SIMPLE: Life on Bloor in 1940

The Forgotten Story of the Bloor Streetcar — Toronto in the 1940s

Long before the Bloor-Danforth subway, before traffic took over, and before glass towers lined the skyline, Toronto moved to the sound of the streetcar.

This video takes you back to 1940s Bloor Street, where steel rails stitched the city together and the streetcar was the backbone of daily life. Through original footage and immersive narration, we explore a time when the city felt smaller, more personal, and deeply connected.

Why did Toronto remove the Bloor streetcar?
What did the city lose in the name of progress?
And what was it really like to ride across Bloor in a different era?

Whether you’re a transit enthusiast, a Toronto history buff, or simply curious about how the city used to live and move, this is a story worth remembering.
