A public process could have led to something spectacular — instead, Doug Ford’s new Ontario Place just offers more of the same
Same as the old Ontario Place. Ford’s Ontario Line, despite the name, won’t really provide door-to-door transit service to Ontario Place. It’s a real missed opportunity to not consider redevelopment of the Exhibition in lockstep with the Ontario Place process. When it opens, sometime between 2027 and 2030, the new Ontario Place will probably enjoy a few glory years, just like the old Ontario Place did. The pandemic, meanwhile, offered a kind of informal demonstration of what people really value in a place like Ontario Place.
