Brooklyn and Toronto both have very high populations of Jamaicans. Brooklyn got some good ass Jamaican food out there..So does TO but I think BK edges them out. Some of the best I've had anywhere. Shout out to Canarsie. I think their populations are pretty close.

TO has approximately 180,000 Jamaicans according to Wiki

And NY state has 305,000 Most of which i think are in Brooklyn. But Queens also.

toronto and ontario has more jamaica's then 180k . those toronto are old and # don't include half jamaican, or city around toronto . brampton and sauaga alone will add another 80k. all jamaicans in ny don't live in bk. Toronto by far has the most jamaican influence of either bk or london .

Have you ever been to BK?

I'd agree with your Toronto having more than 180 that's why I said it was wiki numbers. And, I forgot to add a comment about Sauga and Brampton adding to those numbers. And, I also pointed out it was NY State. You right about Toronto having a Jaimacan influence over the entire city and people that aren't Jamaican in their slang and on the culture in general. BUT, if you ever been to Canarsie and Brooklyn than you'd know most Jaimacans out there just play dancehall and dont' even play hip hop these days (and it's been like that for awhile) and live in much bigger Jaimacan communities. Even their Labor Day parade is Bigger than Caribana. And, the food.

And, I'm born in raised in Toronto.

They’ve made BBK a success together. Much of BBK’s output has come from the crew’s individual members, with each release backed by the others through social media,

Toronto has like 70-80k Jamaicans in the city limits. NYC has twice that amount and that doesn't include all the Jamaicans in Long Island , Jersey or Upstate NY. So there are much more Jamaican Americans than Jamaican Canadians but Jamaicans in Canada are overrepresented because there's no native black Canadian culture and the other immigrants up there are swag less and have to leech off Jamaican culture
