To give a sense of scale, this proposed private mega spa on the waterfront at Ontario Place is the size of 12 football fields, and is accompanied by a massive, public parking garage.
There is no way to put a āgreenā spin on a waterfront destination spa of this scale. There is no planning rationale that can justify subsidizing an outsized parking structure on prime waterfront land where children should be playing instead - especially given that we are investing billions to deliver a new subway to this locatIon.
Sometimes it is better to start over than to proceed with a mistake that will last for generations.
Itās time for politicians to say no.
Itās time for planners to say no.
