Thank you @BhutilaKarpoche for this powerful member statement on stopping the private spa at Ontario Place this morning at Queens Park! Thank you for caring for this public space that so many people from Parkdale-High Park and across Ontario enjoy! #topoli#onpoli

Disappointed in the consultation about the future of Ontario Place? You're not alone.
Send this letter to ask the Province and the City to treat Ontario Place with the respect it deserves.

Parks have become even more critical to Canadians’ health and wellbeing during COVID-19. #parksmatter

We were fortunate to help run & support a few community gardens around the city such as Fort York and Hope Garden at Masaryk-Cowan Community Centre in Parkdale! Artists like Ozzy and Eze (pictured below) took such care and always treated our gardens with love.
The City of Toronto is re-opening a number of park amenities due to updates in the provincial emergency order. For this weekend, City staff will re-open picnic shelters, soccer fields, baseball diamonds and basketball courts, while making sure public health measures are in place.
