Welcome to esperanto.ca

What is Esperanto ?

Esperanto is a language created in 1887 by a Polish doctor named Zamenhof. The main objective of Esperanto is to serve as a common auxiliary language, fostering more effective and fair international communication. The Esperanto movement also supports linguistic diversity, democracy, human emancipation, and a global culture for peace.

Esperanto is regular and relatively easy to learn, and is currently used by a worldwide community estimated at over one million speakers. Esperanto is employed in world travel, correspondence, cultural exchange, conventions, literature, language instruction, radio broadcasting, and more.

The Toronto Esperanto Circle


We are a group of people who meet to learn, speak, and enjoy the international language Esperanto.

We meet each Monday (Tuesday, if Monday is a public holiday in Ontario) between 6pm and 8pm, in the cafe "COFFEE ZONE", 30 Carlton St. It is on the north side, in the entrance of the Holiday Inn, a bit east of the College subway station. After 8pm some of us go to one of the local restaurants to eat, and continue the conversation.

Some of the back-numbers of our bulletin, La Torontano, are available on the webpages of Ken Price.

Other activities

From time to time we gather together at the home of one of the club members, which also serves as the library of our club, and there we discuss interesting issues, enjoy some fine refreshments and get to know each other better.


S o m e r f e s t

We will have a meeting on Saturday 27th de August during the afternoon and evening, in 'The Party Room' of 77 Carlton Street, Toronto.

The 15th of December 2011 will be the 152nd anniversary of the birth of
