INFORMATION
The Toronto Racing Canoe Club was founded in the fall of 1989 and operated out of Sunnyside Pavilion. Although the club started hosting an invitational regatta in 1993, that year, Sunnyside chose to build a new café which forced the canoe club out, hoping to relocate to the mouth of the Humber. Although often called the Toronto Canoe Club, it bore no affiliation with the original Toronto Canoe Club (1880-1939). The club folded in 1995, transferring their boats to the Toronto Island Canoe Club.
