In Tevet 2006, the community rabbi, [[Rabbi Dovid schochet|Rabbi David Schochet]], established a rabbinical ordination institute in Thornhill, a Toronto suburb, for the city's Chabad community, particularly serving community members who became religious.

In Tishrei 2009, after much effort, a new eruv was installed in southeast Toronto by emissary Rabbi Avraham Plotkin, connecting southeast Toronto with the rest of Toronto's eruv. Towards summer 2012, Camp Gan Israel Toronto was established in Haliburton, about a two-hour drive from Toronto (considered relatively close by Canadian standards). Before the camp's opening, Haliburton City Council renamed the street leading to Gan Israel grounds to "Gan Israel Trail."
