The Woodbridge portion of Vaughan (going by the electoral district, which has about 105,000 people) is 55% Italian origin, with about 1/3 speaking Italian and 1/4 having Italian as their mother tongue.
The other parts of Vaughan are Maple, which has a good number of Italians but also Pakistanis, and Thornhill which is Jewish/Russian with relatively few Italians.
Pretty much the whole NW corridor of Toronto from Corso Italia to Glen Park, Maple Leaf, Downsview, Humberlea, Emery/Humber Heights, Woodbridge, Maple, Bolton, King Township and parts of Richmond Hill have a significant Italian presence.
