History
The Church of the Nativity of the Mother of God in Toronto for Slovaks of the Eastern Rite was established in October 1951. L. Minya was appointed the first pastor of the newly formed church.

In 1952, Michael Rusnak was appointed as a pastor of the church. It was during this time that the congregation acquired the B'Nai Israel Synagogue on Shaw Street in Toronto and converted it to a church.

In 2006, Bishop John Pazak moved the tabernacle and the antimension from the Cathedral of the Transfiguration in Markham to the Church of the Nativity of the Mother of God, elevating the church to a Cathedral.

In 2022, Pope Francis lowered the Eparchy of Saints Cyril and Methodius in Toronto to an exarchate and transferred it from the Slovak Greek Catholic Church to the Byzantine Catholic Metropolitan Church of Pittsburgh, a Ruthenian Greek Catholic ecclesiastical province. The cathedral, as part of the eparchy, was transferred the jurisdiction of Ruthenian Greek Catholic Church.
