Ford says no taxpayer money will be used to build Ontario Place spa or planned expansion of year-round concert venue

into a tourist destination amid calls for more transparency into the province’s deal with a luxury spa company and its pledge to move the Ontario Science Centre to the Toronto waterfront location.

Mr. Ford also said he’s “open” to releasing the business case that outlines why the government says it is cheaper to move thefrom its current location in northeast Toronto to a brand-new building on the waterfront, a day after a spokesperson for Infrastructure Minister Kinga Surma said the province would be keeping both the lease agreement and the business case confidential.

“Either you keep an old building, all run down, or the province is coming in and saying ‘I’m going to build you something unbelievable,’” Mr. Ford said.
