About

What is the Toronto Eruv?

An eruv is a halachic boundary that creates a symbolic private domain, permitting observant Jews to carry objects and push strollers on Shabbos and Yom Tov.

Toronto's eruv has been serving the community since December 1996, established under the guidance of the Va'ad Harabonim of Toronto. It spans much of the city, from Major Mackenzie in the north to the CP tracks near Dupont Avenue in the south.

A trained team inspects the boundary weekly before Shabbos. A single break anywhere along the perimeter renders the eruv invalid for that week.
