As the city filed it
Ontario Place is a critical part of our City and our Province. These treasured lands represent a crucial public asset that has served the public for decades, and an asset that must be respected. In our rapidly growing City, access to public land for the public good must continue to be a critical priority.

Given the importance of such a critical public asset, the City of Toronto and local communities must be involved in any discussions related to the future of Ontario place.
