Doug Ford doesn't have a plan for the future of the OSC. But closing it got Therme Spa a parking garage. Now Doug is asking the private sector for a 10-year strategic plan for the OSC, at taxpayers' expense. How's that for Protecting Ontario? #onpoli

Advocates worry about new Ontario Science Centre contract #onpoli globalnews.ca/news/1114428...

Lyle Lanley can sell anything to anyone. How we believe Therme Spa was sold to Doug Ford's government:

They told us the roof would collapse. It didn't. What else did they misrepresent? The repair cost? Vote to Save Ontario Science Centre, a world famous, Made in Canada symbol of our country. 🇨🇦

Remember when Doug Ford wanted to build a ferris wheel on the waterfront? And we all thought it was Doug's worst idea ever? Oh, for simpler times...

"Look at the light and repeat after me: Therme Spa is good for Ontario taxpayers." Call the Premier's Office: 416-325-1941 Tell Premier Ford: Cancel Therme Spa and Save OSC!

According to the New York Times, Therme does not have money to build the spa at Ontario Place. But Kinga Surma said today Therme is creating jobs to "Protect Ontario." Doesn't no money also mean no jobs? Read the full article on the Save OSC website: savesciencecentre.com/false_claims

The New York Times is reporting Therme Canada allegedly misrepresented itself to get Ontario Place. Remember, Premier Ford added Ontario Science Centre to Therme Canada to sweeten a bad deal. Read the full article on the Save OSC website: savesciencecentre.com/false_claims

The Ontario Science Centre Played an Airport on “Station Eleven.” www.azuremagazine.com/article/onta...

We popped into Sherway Gdns to see the temp science centre. Was so angry & sad to see it so reduced & so cheap in a former dept store … decided not to post yesterday. (Also Cadillac Fairview ruined the Zeidler big top).

Question: Why is McMichael gallery worth repairing but the science centre is not? Answer: Politics. 1/3

Meanwhile north of Montreal... Introducing Morea, a $200 million water park with 20+ attractions: slides, a lazy river, spas & a surfing wave pool. 150,000+ sq ft of entertainment. To be built on private land with private money. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/mirabel-water-park-project-1.7502507

Science Centre Station renamed "Don Valley Station." Metrolinx kept the name far longer than we expected. Costs to change signage will be charged to the Eglinton LRT project budget, paid by #Ontario taxpayers. globalnews.ca/news/1110137...

Good news: There will be an OSC Summer Camp this year. Bad news: It's downtown at Harbourfront, out of reach for deserving kids from the suburbs. Why has CEO Dr. Paul Kortenaar abandoned educating young learners from the OSC's home community? #ontario #toronto #scarborough #onpoli

Congratulations to Co-chair of SaveOSC Jason Ash for receiving the 2025 Agnes Macphail Award. Thank you Jason for your continued advocacy for the OSC, Thorncliffe, Flemingdon and Toronto residents #SaveOSC #ReopenRenewReinvest

Kids write the darndest things.

A rainbow beside Ontario's Science Centre on Don Mills Road. No word on which developer snatched the pot of gold. #onpoli

The roof is leaking inside the Superstore at Don Mills & Eglinton, next door to Ontario Science Centre. We're surprised it hasn't been permanently closed. We need Doug Ford and Kinga Surma to get involved.

Ontario should apply a 25% tariff on Ford Nation to reopen the Science Centre. #onpoli

Your kids could have been enjoying Ontario Science Centre right now. But Ford closed it for his customer. Protect Ontario from Doug Ford. Vote.

Doug Ford’s tunnel vision will collapse under rainfall and snow. Doug refused to maintain a relatively simple building like the Ontario Science Centre. Do you trust Doug to build a safe tunnel for your family under Highway 401?
