Can't understand why there's question mark on Dhobitalao being mini Goa. Dhobitalao is still referred to as mini-Goa. Well, Malton was the first Little Punjab. Then, Springdale in Mississauga was nicknamed Singhdale.
Gerrard St is still referred to as Little India, though its chsracter has changed. I have seen artsy shops there. I ate at a Nepali restaurant. Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans have made their presence there in a substantial way.
