As Co-Chair, I am submitting this comment on behalf of Ontario Place for All, a non-partisan grassroots group with over 20,000 supporters (who have sent at least this many letters to their MPPs to share their concerns.)

Ontario Place for All is reiterating concerns that it and its supporters have previously raised related to the incomplete EA process:

1. The proponent (Ministry of Infrastructure/Infrastructure Ontario) has improperly and illegally excluded the lands intended for the Therme Spa development from this Environmental Assessment;

2. The impact of the underground parking lot has not been properly assessed in accordance with the procedures required by the Environmental Assessment Act;

3. The impact of the proposal to move the Ontario Science Centre has not been properly assessed in accordance with the procedures required by the Environmental Assessment Act;

4. The ESR should not be finalized and the EA approved until the above omissions have been rectified, properly assessed and reported in a proper Draft ESR.

Thank you,
Ann Elisabeth Samson
co-chair, Ontario Place for All
