Fraternal greetings to the brethren of Toronto West District, to visiting brethren and those of you who may be interested in joining the Craft. We are a diverse district of 18 Lodges, meeting in Temples located in Toronto, Etobicoke, Port Credit, Streetsville, Brampton and Caledon.

If you are a brother of Toronto West District, I encourage you to participate regularly in the work of your mother Lodge, but also to travel within your district. Just as every meeting you attend is better for your having been there so too is every meeting you miss diminished by your absence. Your Lodge, your district and the Craft are built with individual stones, squared and connected to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. Your Lodge, your district and the Craft reciprocate your participation by strengthening your feelings of fraternity and support.

If you are visiting from another district or Grand Lodge, Welcome! Any of the Lodges in our district will greet you with warmth and enthusiasm.

If you are considering becoming a Freemason, I would encourage you to visit any of the Lodges listed on this site. Reach out to the Lodge Secretary and he will set up a meeting with a member, and/or invite you to come and visit his Lodge. When you meet the brethren of any Lodge, ask several of them whatever questions you may have. They will give different answers, depending on their point of view and experience in Masonry. None of them will be wrong, however different their answers.

I look forward to seeing new brethren being initiated into the craft this year, to meeting visiting brethren and to connecting even more meaningfully with the brothers of Toronto West.
