The Permanently Closed Ontario Science Centre | Toronto Walk (June 2024)
A Toronto walk around the not yet open Science Centre Station at Eglinton and Don Mills. Then it's over to the recently closed Ontario Science Centre which was shuttered suddenly on Friday, June 21, 2024 by the provincial government.
The province has made it no secret that they want to close and (massively) downsize the Science Centre to a new location at Ontario Place.
See savesciencecentre.com/ for more details.

    Don Mills is an interesting road via the express bus north south. When I furs5 saw the bus route travelling from Pape North to Sheppard, the road and surrounding buildings seemed reminiscent of a developmental era in Canada during the 70’s-80’s.

    Although I’m in the UK I tune into CP24 regularly, and those Ontario PC ads really annoy me. I find it funny how they can attack Bonnie Crombie (who I don’t know much about) and then paint Doug Ford as a caring, compassionate Premier. To me he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The whole thing with the Science Centre stinks so much I can smell it from here. It’s very ironic how we know that he wants to move it to Ontario Place with his chum’s spa, and yet the reports contradict his and the PC’s claims of how “bad” it is. And they don’t reconvene again until October 21st. It is just awful, corrupt, wrong, did I say corrupt?

    The exhibits were interesting but I don't think they have changed much over the years. It seems many of the spaces have been used for events for long time instead of displays what you would expect a museum / science centre will have. The IMAX theatre is just about the only worthwhile venue it has. The neighborhood (Thorncliffe) has been run down over the years and mostly taken over by newer immigrants from certain parts of the world.

    Apparently, the engineering report did not include closing down the Science Centre. That was Doug Ford's idea. You can bet money was involved . What has Ford got against human rights anyways? The Science Centre was built for the people. Unfortunately, Doug decided not to tell anyone. Just close it down without consulting the people of Toronto. Yesterday, Dougie went on You Tube to defend his decision, with the comments turned off. Nice. That is twice that Ford has given the people of Toronto the finger. There is a contractor who has offered to do the roof work for free. You think that will stop Dougie? When are Ontarians going to see Ford for what he is? An opportunist who got into politics to line his pockets and the pockets of his buddies with CASH. An opportunist who wanted to tear down the world's largest Green Belt, the Ontario Green Belt; a Greenbelt which are species needs for our very survival, and, yep, line his pockets and the pockets of his buddies with $$$$$$$$. Apparently the whole thing has been swept under a rug just like the Science Centre will. Have no fear though, Dougie is bringing BEER to the variety stores. Dougie believes that all Ontarians really need is BEER. Before you vote for Poilievre, think again. Look at Dougie and ask yourself an honest question; do you want Canada to be run like Ontario is being run right now?

    The roof will collapse in June LOL. Not in the middle of winter but right at the start of summer. “Hey Folks” as Doug Ford would say, never was able to the grasp the importance of science. I imagine he would think this but, I could be wrong. Highly unlikely though.

      @jennymcmillen5626 16 часов назад

      The local news reported that a risk of roof collapse on the building earlier this month. They decided to close down the whole centre on account of an engineer's report; thought it would be until the repairs are done (like for the summer) but hearing around how the government decided to shut it down indefinitely, not too surprising. They'd been discussing relocating the venue to another decades-long shutdown venue's location at Ontario Place by the Exhibition Grounds by the lake shore. While I would love to see Ontario Place's being revitalize again, it's something we'll be waiting a long time to happen, like the Eglinton Crosstown LTR (Line 5 of the TTC?) Too many projects in the city's works with not much getting finished, I'm thinking.

    What a terrible thing Ford decided to do. This was an iconic attraction loved by so many children and adults; from its modernist architecture to the great exhibits it had. I can’t believe it had to end that way when they could literally repair it. When I was a bus driver at Eglinton division 10-20 years ago, I drove the Don Mills and Eglinton East buses respectively. I picked up and dropped off lots of school groups, families and children who were going to and from the Science Centre. Lots.
