Hi all! Welcome to Vintage Ontario.
Many of you may recall that we started out by sharing old Canadian movies. I'm so grateful - thanks to you, we grew to over 80,000 subscribers! It was amazing to share those and to connect with you all over the decade.
But over time, I realized I want this channel to focus on original content - especially exploring the history of Ontario, Canada. From fascinating stories about historic forgotten places, film history, to the people who shaped our province, my goal is to make history fun, engaging, and something everyone can enjoy.
Full movies will no longer be publicly available here. (You can go to my other channel, Vintage Canada, to watch similar movie content though). Going forward, all videos you see will be original content created by me, focusing on Ontario history.
I know this is a major change. Thanks again for your support, and welcome to the new Vintage Ontario — where stories come alive!

From an 1877 map to a 1930s topo map, the story of this pioneer lot in Courtice is written in the land itself. While the farmhouse survives, the barn foundation—one of the last visible ties to the families who built this community—might not be here much longer.
I went out to capture what remains before the excavators move in. It’s a quiet, powerful piece of our local roots that deserves a moment of recognition.
See what’s being lost: Will Progress Erase This Pioneer History?
