Thornton and Lucie Blackburn fled slavery with nothing and ended up pioneering the taxi industry in Toronto — but that's only half the story. They used their success to keep fighting, helping free others through the Underground Railroad long after their own escape.This is their story, part of our Self-Made Canadians series honoring Black pioneers and Black history in Canada.Want the full series?

Last summer was incredibly special to me!After being a featured performer at the Toronto Blue Jays’ Caribbean Carnival Night in both 2022 and 2023, I officially joined their entertainment team in 2024 as a member of J-Force.Performing at 82 games over the span of six months was no joke—but I did it alongside the best group of people I could ask for.I’m so so incredibly grateful for all the positivity and friends this organization has brought to my journey over the past three years.
