A member of SwimOP (Swim at Ontario Place) steps in Lake Ontario off the west beach for a swim at Ontario Place in Toronto, on Friday November 3, 2023. The group advocate to keep the beach accessible to all year round and oppose the redevelopment of Ontario Place by the Ford Government, which includes a long-term lease on the site's West Island for Austria-based company Therme to build a sprawling, private indoor water park and spa.
