  • As Ontario’s Minister of Construction Kinga Surma was speaking outdoors at a press conference in Toronto on Tuesday, severe weather conditions forced the minister to abruptly halt the press conference. Liberal Minister for Women and Gender Equality Marci Ien could be heard remarking that the “media’s tent is collapsing.”
    Environment Canada has issued rainfall warnings for the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and a large part of southern Ontario on Tuesday.
    The warnings were issued at around 9:30 a.m. The weather agency said rainfall amounts of up to 75 millimetres are possible with rainfall rates of 40 mm an hour.
    Environment Canada warned that heavy downpours can cause flash floods and water pooling on roads, as well as localized flooding in low-lying areas.

    The irony of the structure above their heads failing while talking about the Ontario Science Center is not lost on me.

    ...whoever erected that tent had no clue what they were doing... you can see the "peak" pole wasn't pushed high up into position and the laterals supporting aren't locked ... if you can't erect a basic shade canopy how can you build a new Science Centre????

      I work frequently with this type of tent (every weekend for the past 15 years) and it seems that the apparent problems are either part of how the tent was designed, or due to the sheer amount of water pressing down on it causing it to start to fail
