Thank you to everyone who participated last night in Meeting #1 to Reimagine Moriyama’s Science Centre in Flemingdon Park. Lots of great ideas to build on from the local Don Valley community! Details for the next meeting will be announced shortly.

FOIs by Ontario’s journalists are in the public interest & benefit all of us. Without the reporting of Isaac Callan & Colin D’Mello, Tina Yazdani, Charlie Pinkerton, Allison Jones, Siobhan Morris & many others, the public wouldn’t know the truth about the OSC. FOIs are good for democracy. #onpoli

"What I do as a person, as an architect, it's not so that it looks good on paper or in a magazine. It's not a statement of one's ego. It has to express democracy, equality, inclusion of all people, and social justice. If not, then architecture is a hollow sham." - Raymond Moriyama

Reopening the visionary centre created by Raymond Moriyama, reimagined and renewed for continued public enjoyment is a priority for Save OSC. Stay tuned for a future announcement about community meetings in April.

Paul Kortenaar, CEO of the Ontario Science Centre, highlighted the centre’s future potential, stating, “Our future home will bring science to life in an inclusive and playful way, where visitors, including teachers and students, can experience the wonder of science.”

John Carmichael reports to the Ontario govt as chair of the OSC board. He is not independent. He is accountable to Doug Ford. He also received the King Charles III Coronation Medal in 2025, after he closed the #ontariosciencecentre #toronto #topoli #onpoli #CoronationMedal #Canada

It is clear Raymond Moriyama was more then the architect of the OSC building. He was a visionary founding father, celebrated and honoured by the Ontario Science Centre itself. The soul of @OntScienceCtr torn down by Doug Ford, for 🇺🇸 tourism. #ontario #toronto #onpoli #topoli

Tourism, Tourism, Tourism. Doug Ford's science centre is not for STEM education, or for Ontario families. It is about extracting as much money from visiting American tourists, to put into the pockets of the premier's friends. #ontario #toronto #onpoli #topoli

Remember, Doug Ford knew he was going to close the Ontario Science Centre as early as 2020. It took six years - until February 2026 - for Doug Ford to release a design for a new one. No shovels in the ground yet either. #ontario #toronto #onpoli #topoli

The Ontario Science Centre opened 56 years ago today, on Sept 26, 1969. A gift to Ontarians for Canada’s centennial, a radio signal from over 1.5 billion light-years away struck a circuit at the OSC to raise a curtain, opening it for all. Doug Ford, age 4, could not stop the launch.

Moriyama’s OSC was designed as part of the larger, 180-acre conservation area, E.T. Seton Park. Together, we can fully realize his vision of an inclusive meeting place for public education and recreation, whether one’s journey starts from the Don Valley Ravine or Don Mills Road.
