Meet the new science centre: Lots and lots of walking, with a few exhibits in-between on the journey. No public transit to the front door either. #ontario #toronto #onpoli #topoli
Everything revealed today behind Toronto's $1.04 billion new Science Centre set for Ontario Place. urbantoronto.ca/news/2026/02…

NEW: The contract to design, build and maintain a new Ontario Science Centre at Ontario Place will cost taxpayers $1.04B. The business case from 3 years ago used to justify the OSC's relocation estimated that the same work (with +20 years of maintenance) would cost $628M.

Thank you, Blue Jays. 🇨🇦⚾ You gave us a season we’ll never forget. A postseason run that united a country, lifted a nation, and reminded us what it means to play for something bigger than ourselves. Somewhere today, a young Canadian is swinging a bat and throwing a ball. You’ve inspired the next generation to dream, to believe, and to fall in love with the game. We’re proud to call you Canada’s team. We’re grateful. And we can’t wait to see what comes next.

The wonderful Helen Moffatt was on @ThePianoUK yesterday evening! Helen has #PPA and wrote her composition all about how it feels to have these communication difficulties - what a ray of hope for others @RareDementia @dyscoveraphasia
When you have no words, the piano can say so much. Helen's 'Out Of The Box'. #ThePiano

Doug Ford's science centre is a bad idea. Bad for #Ontario kids. Bad for #Toronto traffic. Bad for Hardworking Taxpayers. Sign the Letter: SaveScienceCentre.com

In 2019, the #Ontario government ignored expert advice from the then OSC CEO & board to stay at Don Mills Road! Fast forward to 2024, and they had a new CEO and board in place to close it. Sign the Letter: SaveScienceCentre.com cc: @OntScienceCtr @OPSEU #onpoli

Under the command of @fordnation, the OSC rainforest has just been cut down. OSC CEO Paul Kortenaar got it done. Now he wants #Ontario to buy t-shirts. Call the Premier’s Office: 416-325-1941 Sign the Letter: SaveScienceCentre.com

There is one brutal through-line uniting the crises @RevueCinema, Hot Docs, Ontario Place, Ontario Science Centre, and Toronto's sponsor-wracked arts festivals: an active distaste and fundamental ignorance of what the arts can do. My @globeandmail column: theglobeandmail.com/arts/fil…
