former City of North York, A large number of residents from New Brunswick
are employed
in
the primary sector of industry
More than 13,000 New Brunswickers work
in agriculture
shipping products worth over $1 billion
half of which
is from crops
and half of that from potatoes
mostly
in
the Saint John River valley
McCain Foods
is one of
the world's largest manufacturers of frozen potato products
Other products include apples
cranberries
and maple syrup. New Brunswick was
in 2015
the biggest producer of wild blueberries
in Canada
the value of
the livestock sector
is about
a quarter of
a billion dollars
nearly half of which
is dairy
Other sectors include poultry
fur
and goats
sheep
and pigs
A paper mill
in Saint John
About 83% of New Brunswick
is forested
Historically important
it accounted
for more than 80% of exports
in
the mid 1800s
By
the end of
the 1800s
the industry
and shipbuilding
were declining due
to external economic factors
the 1920s saw
the development of
a pulp
and paper industry
in
the mid-1960s
forestry practices changed from
the controlled harvests of
a commodity
to
the cultivation of
the forests
the industry employs nearly 12,000
generating revenues around $437 million
Mining was historically unimportant
in
the province
but since
the 1950s has grown and
in 2012 was an estimated $1.1 billion
Mines
in New Brunswick produce lead
zinc
copper
and potash

Toronto is
a central transportation hub
for road
rail
and air networks
in Southern Ontario
There
are many forms of transport
in
the city of Toronto
including highways
and public transit
Toronto also has an extensive network of bicycle lanes
and multi-use trails
and paths
Public transportation. Built
in 1887
the Victoria Industrial School
for Boys was
the destination
for youth convicted of crimes
and "incorrigible" youth until
it was closed
in 1934
Boys at
the school were housed
in "cottages," two
to three story brick buildings housing
as many
as forty boys
and quite unlike
the wood-frame houses
in nearby Mimico
in
the "cottages,"
the boys were supervised by
a man
and woman
usually husband
and wife. However
despite
the homely setting
the school was often
a place of violence for
the boys there including such treatment
as being handcuffed
to
the bed
beaten
and placed
on bread-and-water diets
These abuses were
the focus of investigations by
the province
as well
as reporting
in
the Toronto Daily Star. Although
the school was operated locally
the school was increasingly populated
by boys from across
the province
the site was used for
the education of inmates under various names including
the Mimico Correctional Centre and
is now home
to
the Toronto South Detention Centre
Alexandra School
for Girls. .
