To anyone interested in the topic…

The link www.planetfriendly.net/community.html gave the following
definition for Intentional Communities.

"Intentional community" is a general term that represents a wide
variety of living alternatives. They range from the highly unusual,
to quite conservative arrangements of potential mainstream interest.
An intentional community is a group of people who have chosen to live
or work together in pursuit of a common goal or vision. Thousands
exist today, rural or urban, communal or individualistic, spiritual
or secular, big or small. They can be based around any number of
themes, such as economic cooperation, equality, environmental
sustainability, education, health, participative government, personal
growth, social activism, spirituality, voluntary simplicity. "I.C."
includes ecovillages, cohousing, land trusts, communes, student co-
ops, urban housing cooperatives & other related projects and dreams.

When I went to the Intentional Community website at www.ic.org, there
main one closest to Toronto was in Caledon (www.wholevillage.org)

What fascinated me most was that there are Intentional Communities
(www.vegnet.net) that are vegan/vegetarian. No Intentional
Communities of this sort are located in Canada.

The purpose of this email was to get everyone's opinion. If enough
people are interested maybe one can be started in Toronto.
