When Jackie Mittoo and Leroy Sibbles migrated from Jamaica to
Toronto in the early 1970s, the musicians brought reggae with them,
sparking the flames of one of Canada's most vibrant music scenes.
Professional reggae musician and scholar Jason Wilson tells the
story of how reggae brought black and white youth together, opening
up a cultural dialogue between Jamaican migrants and Canadians
along the city's ethnic frontlines. This underground subculture
rebelled against the status quo, broke through the bonds of race,
eased the acculturation process, and made bands such as Messenjah
and the Sattalites household names for a brief but important time.
