Critics are once again questioning the Ford government’s decision to close the Ontario Science Centre abruptly, and the reason behind it, days after a record winter storm pummelled Toronto. But days after a record snowfall, the roof appears unharmed – at least from the outside – leading local leaders to once again criticize the government’s reason for the closure. Earlier this week, Ford was asked if he did, in fact, provide a false reason for the closure of the science centre. “Even the manner by which they went about closing it, there was no rush, there was no imminent danger.”Removing the record amount of snow from the science centre roof is no easy task. When the government announced the abrupt closure of the science centre, its press release said the Ontario Place facility would open “as early as” 2028.
