Mawlana Hazar Imam and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper marked the Foundation of the Ismaili Centre, Toronto, together with the Aga Khan Museum and their Park on 28 May 2010. Situated along Wynford Drive in the city's Don Mills area, the three projects seek to foster knowledge and understanding both within Muslim societies and between these societies and other cultures.

Designed by renowned architect Charles Correa, the Ismaili Centre, Toronto will be the newest addition to a network of Ismaili Centres worldwide. It will be the second in Canada after the Ismaili Centre, Burnaby, which opened in 1985.
