Ontario Place was built as a showcase for the Province of Ontario that would replace the Government of Ontario building at the CNE and take advantage of what was then an under-developed waterfront area. 

Construction started on March 17, 1969 and took an estimated 1.5 million person hours of labour to build at a cost of $29M.

The original park was consisted of three man-made islands connected by picturesque bridges and walkways with the Pods or Pavilion, complex and the geodesic dome of the Cinesphere as the focal points.

The park initially encompassed 96 acres of which 51 acres were land fill.

The gate first opened to the public on May 22, 1971, 38 years ago.

2000 - Just months prior to training camp, New York businessman Sherwood Schwarz became the ninth owner in the history of the franchise. J.I. Albrecht was named as the team’s Managing Director and John Huard was named Head Coach. Argo great Paul Masotti retired as the team’s all-time leading receiver. After a 1-6-1 start, legendary Argo Mike “Pinball” Clemons traded in his cleats for a headset and replaced Huard as Head Coach. Clemons played two games as a player/coach before retiring from the CFL to become the Argos full-time Head Coach. The team finished just shy of the playoffs with a 7-11-1 record.

2001 - With Clemons entering his first full season as a Head Coach, the Argos went about the business of getting the team back into the post-season. After a difficult 2-7 start to the season, which wasn't helped with injuries to starting QB Kerwin Bell, the Argos, led by veteran players Derrell Mitchell, Mike O'Shea and Adrion Smith, won 4 of the last 6 games to narrowly miss out on the playoffs again, finishing with a 7-11-0 mark.

2002 - Clemons stepped down as Head Coach to make way for Gary Etcheverry, whose defensive philosophy was to be complemented by newly-acquired DE Joe Montford. After a 4-8 start, Etcheverry was replaced by Clemons, who returned to the sidelines after being appointed team President. Clemons’ presence by the bench would spark the club. First, they defeated the Calgary Stampeders 33-32 to clinch a playoff berth, then they hosted their first playoff game in five years defeating the Saskatchewan Roughriders 24-14. The Argos then headed down the 401 to face the league-leading Montreal Alouettes in the East Championship, losing to the eventual Grey Cup champions 35-18 in front of a boisterous sell-out crowd at Olympic Stadium.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are a professional ice hockey team based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They are members of the Northeast Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). The organization, one of the "Original Six" members of the NHL, is officially known as the Toronto Maple Leaf Hockey Club and is the leading subsidiary of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. (MLSE). They have played at the Air Canada Centre (ACC) since 1999, after 68 years at Maple Leaf Gardens.

The Leafs are well known for their long and bitter rivalry with the Montreal Canadiens. Toronto has won eleven Stanley Cups as the Maple Leafs since the cup became solely competed for within the NHL in 1927. They also won two cups prior to this: one as the St. Patricks, and one as the Arenas. The franchise's 13 championships are second only to the Canadiens who have 24. However, the Leafs have not won the Cup at all since 1967, the longest-active drought in the NHL, and are the only Original Six team that has not won the Cup since the 1967 NHL expansion.

At $470 million (2009), the Leafs are the most valuable team in the NHL, followed by the New York Rangers and the Montreal Canadiens.[1]
