Ontario Place demolition paused | CTV News Toronto at Noon for July 12, 2024

A group fighting the redevelopment of Ontario Place says that the province has agreed to pause some work at the site pending a court hearing scheduled for next week.

Ontario Place Protectors has launched a court challenge of the Rebuilding Ontario Place Act, which gives the government special powers to expedite the redevelopment of the site, including an exemption from the Environmental Assessment Act.

The matter is due to come before the Superior Court of Ontario for a one-day hearing on July 19.
