Imagine if Torontonians had a new beach to enjoy at Ontario Place (Photo Essay)

People are already drawn to the water at Ontario Place. Why not embrace their connection to the water?

In a city where people often live for years not realizing how close they are to Lake Ontario, a growing community of people have started to embrace a hidden gem at Ontario Place.

On Saturday, August 10th we joined representatives from groups like Park People, Ontario Place For All, Surf The Greats, Environmental Defence and unaffiliated area residents to take a closer look at the southwest section of Ontario Place.

The area is currently off-limits to swimming, but it has so much potential.

In this photo essay, we invite you to imagine a swimmable Ontario Place.
