Toronto residents might just be unknowingly accomplishing a world record as they protest the redevelopment of Ontario Place, turning the fence surrounding the space into a nearly kilometre-long blackboard.
While the fence has been used as a hub for protest messages against Ford's plan to build a huge spa over the greenspace, it might soon make news for another reason: it could quite possibly be the longest blackboard in the entire world.Painted black and covered in chalk drawings, there's no disputing that the fence is a blackboard — no matter how frequently workers are sent out to paint over the drawings. The question, then, is whether it truly is the longest one in the world.
While the public consensus about the Ontario Place development is generally negative, and it seems to be trundling on despite protest by locals and wildlife advocates, maybe a world record can prove to be a small silver lining in what is otherwise a massive crap storm.
