"The book's title understates the scope of the text. With Harriet Parson's historical reach from the latter part of the nineteenth century, through to Allan Irving's analysis of the current role of social settlements, there is a panorama that goes far beyond the few wards of Toronto's downtown area. The original purposes of assimilation of new immigrants and recognizing the cultural heritage each of the groups brought are as relevant today as they were then. Canada's multicultural policies were tested for 75 years by the settlements before they became part of the national purpose. Where the immigrants come from has changed over the decades, but the welcoming has been constant. Innovations in developing social programs have been incorporated into Canada's social caring net without remembering how they began. Neighbours redresses the memory loss by retelling once-upon-a-time stories that are no fairy tales but the truth about the past." — Eileen Garber, President, Canadian Association of Neighbourhood Services
