Here are two articles about Ontario Place from The Star. There are probably more out there.

Whither Ontario Place?

Ontario Place? Make it free, big, fast and for everyone

Marcus Gee's article just depresses me that Shelley Carroll isn't running for mayor.

When the Martin Goodman Trail we rebuilt in front of Ontario Place, it included a longish detour to avoid the spot where one of the grand stands for the Toronto Indy was located for a few days out of the year.

I believe this was the first time the Indy had be run since the trail opened, but the grand stand it was designed to avoid wasn't even set up this year.

@Brent I would argue that the City needs a good budget chief more than a good mayor.
