  6. The shit show of & the Therme Spa at just keeps getting worse.

  11. The Premier Who Would Be Mayor - Doug Ford - is sticking his oar in where it shouldn’t be again.

    Now expropriating Billy Bishop Airport with no limitations set for jet size. That should be popular with all those multi-million dollar condo users along the lake.

    But priorities, people - folks from distant places elsewhere will be able to get to his chum’s Nordic spa at the former Ontario Place.

  16. I have no idea how this film came to be called
    H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come but I will say how nice it was to see the old #Toronto #OntarioPlace as it was and especially the #BuckminsterFuller designed but sadly overbuilt (bucky said) dome, and, well, maybe I'd rather remember it destroyed by an evil megalomaniacal technocrat. #monsterdon material for sure

  21. "In the 1970s, Ontario built the future.
    Floating pods over Lake Ontario, soaring architecture, and a vision that promised technology, art, and imagination for everyone.

    But fifty years later, Ontario Place stands as a relic.
    Now, as redevelopment plans and privatization debates reignite old tensions, the story of Ontario Place has never been more relevant."

  28. #DougFord & the #ProvincialConservative's fake Canada Day message is a joke. Don't spew your 2-faced patriotism when you sell out #Canadian crown lands to an unwanted 95-year lease to a foreign country. Hypocrites, all of them.

  33. @Trillium Right! #DougFord is so conscientious, he will triple check the 95-yr lease he already signed with #Therme to make sure he dotted all the “i’s” before allowing #OntarioPlace to be decimated.

  36. @LexyCameron And still yet to come. #DougFord has destroyed #OntarioPlace to make way for another Therme spa fiasco.

  38. Just checked my voter registration info at elections.on.ca -- I'm there, so I can vote in this pointless election Feb. 27.

    Some questions for your candidates: What's happening with #Metrolinx? How did a half million dollar roof repair cause the #OntarioScienceCentre to be closed down? Who thought spending a billion dollars putting a spa at #OntarioPlace was a good idea?

    Fiscal responsibility? Ridiculous.

  40. How much is Dougie's luxury Austrian spa in going to cost you? (Toronto doesn't want it either).

    $24 million, $14 million, $12 million, $157 million, $19 million, $88 million, $65 million $65 million

    What could your community do with millions of dollars?

  41. @OntarioNDP

    #kingFord will only do what's good for #Ford when it's beneficial to do so.

    He wants to talk jobs? What about his use of the #NotWithstanding clause to avoid fair contact negotiations?

    Ford is here so much for the people of Ontario - that he gifted a deal to build a luxury spa at #OntarioPlace . And here we are - with more than 80,000 people in the province are homeless during the worst winter we've seen in years, and Ford is sending out $200 'vote for me' cheques.

    Ford's priorities? NOT the people.
