TORONTO — Work to renovate Ontario’s legislature is still in relatively early planning stages, but it has already seen “a touch” of a delay, the minister in charge of the $1-billion-plus undertaking said Tuesday .
The director of the precinct properties branch told the committee a historic structures report, which includes both the building and the grounds of the legislature, should be complete in a year-and-a-half. “It was a touch delayed,” Calandra said of the historic structures report. “I’m hoping we can keep it on track, but the reality is, I don’t think we’ll hit the 2026.”
The building is more than 130 years old and while the vast repairs and upgrades needed for the now “hazardous and severely deficient” infrastructure have been discussed for decades, Calandra is determined to push it forward.
