Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Greek Paradise is what some Greeks call Toronto and for Dimitrios (Jim) Papadolias and his famiy - Chrisoula; 3; Eleni; 9; Christos; 12; and wife; Effie; 33; looking over items in gift store - it's been just that. They haven't become millionaires; but they haven't suffered. Papadolias came to Canada in 1957 and worked in dozens of different jobs before he set up his own electrical contracting firm. Ready to tackle any work; he finds it baffling that Canadians complain of no jobs.
