From: Shift Change

In this chapter, the author examines the relationship between Hamilton and Toronto, and how these two once-divided cities are now closely intertwined. The chapter also explores gentrification in Hamilton, which happened as young well-paid professionals migrated into old urban centres, and the role of art and artists in this process.
