Picture from @chrisglover reads: Record breaking snowfall & the Science Centre roof is fine. In 2024, Ford closed the Science Centre. He said the roof needed repair, but the Auditor General found Conservative emails saying they closed it to distract from the environmental destruction and waste of taxpayer dollars at Ontario Place.
Redirecting half the funds for a revamped Ontario Place would have a big impact on housing, health care and public safety, Mark Chamberlain writes. Richard Lautens/Toronto Star file photo By Mark Chamberlain “If Ontario housed the roughly 8,000 people living in encampments, the province could save $300 million to $600 million every year in health care, police, and emergency services. Those savings would be felt immediately in communities like Hamilton, where hospitals operate under chronic pressure and municipalities struggle to fund front line services. At the same time, public reporting has put Ontario's exposure in the current Ontario Place plan at roughly $2.2 billion. Even redirecting half of that would free up $1.1 billion - enough to fund more than 3,000 permanent supportive homes and cut encampments by a third in one decisive move. Mark Chamberlain is the former chair of the Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction.”
