When the couple moved to Toronto, she hosted radio shows for several stations, including a CBC affiliate. In 1951, she joined a Toronto social club then known as The Dilettantes; it was soon renamed to the Canadian Negro Women’s Club, later the Canadian Negro Women’s Association (CANEWA), and Livingstone became its first president, serving from 1951 to 1953. The association began providing scholarships to encourage Black students to stay in school. CANEWA later organized the Calypso Carnival, which later became known as Caribana.She also performed in amateur and professional theatrical productions and was referred to as "one of Canada’s leading Black actresses" during this period.Livingstone served as president of the United Nations Association in Canada, as regional chair of the National Black Coalition, as a moderator for Heritage Ontario and as a member of the Appeal Board of Legal Aid.Just before her sudden death in 1975, she was working as a consultant for the Canadian Privy Council, helping to organize a national conference for visible minority women.
