Congregation Habonim Toronto, founded in 1954, is a liberal reform synagogue located at 5 Glen Park Avenue in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and one of the first Holocaust refugee/survivor congregations to develop in Canada.[1] Although currently independent of any official denomination, its early founders modeled the synagogue on the example of early Reform Judaism in Germany.
