Barsa Kelly/Cari-Can Co-operative Homes Inc. is a non profit housing co-oporative initiated by a group of community minded people who recognized the need for quality affordable housing. These people came from two groups the Ontario Coalition of Visible Minority Women and the Congress of Black Women of Canada. The Co op opened its doors in August 1993 and it has been home to many families and many of whom are still living here. The Co-op is open to people who support co-operative principles and want to be part of a racially and culturally diverse community.
William Lindo and two partners formed Tumbler, Milo and Lindo (TML), as a Distributor of General Line Cans for Continental Can of Canada. William Lindo's experience in the Custom Chemical Packaging Industry allowed him to recognize the need for a Distribution Company that could provide quality service, in Metal Packaging, to small and mid-sized businesses.
