Sixteen years after he first arrived in Canada, Waseem Tahir has completed another big move. This time, it was back into his beloved Alexandra Park community, the revitalization of which he helped to spearhead.
Tahir, who first moved to Alexandra Park with his wife and four children in 2004, had become so active in the community that he was one of the leaders of the revitalization that began in 2009.
The first phase is now complete, and 40 families, including the Tahirs, have moved into their new units. Residents will gather at 3 p.m. today to celebrate the milestone.
