The Ford government is facing fresh questions over its plans to redevelop Ontario Place after new documents suggest the province considered filling in a portion of Lake Ontario to create a new development space.

Internal government documents obtained by the Ontario NDP and provided to Global News refer to “Phase 2” in the province’s overhaul of Toronto’s Ontario Place.

Government schematics point to the eastern portion of the island, near the current Budweiser stage, where a part of the waterfront appears to be paved over creating 25 acres of land to build on.

A spokesperson for Infrastructure Minister Kinga Surma said the government “has been transparent” over its plans and development of Ontario Place. “The documents you are referring to are illustrative only and only meant to outline potential opportunities that are subject to change,” they said.

Global's Colin D'Mello has the details.
