David Braley Athletic Centre

The David Braley Athletic Centre is an athletics facility located at the campus of McMaster University, in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Named after former Canadian senator David Braley, the facility was opened in 2007, with McMaster students paying a year-round membership fee to support the facility as part of their mandatory student union fees. The 12,300 square metres (132,000 sq ft) athletic facility features a 11.0 by 9.1 metres (36 by 30 ft) indoor rock climbing wall, Olympic weightlifting equipment, four internationally sized squash courts, and a four-lane 200 metres (660 ft) indoor track. History The athletic centre was opened by McMaster University in 2007. The cost to build the facility was approximately C$31 million, with C$20 million originating from the university's student unions. In 2018 the athletic centre was involved in an unsuccessful litigation filed by a former student for an alleged injury from using the facility. In May 2018, a jury panel of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice found the university not liable for any claims, with the decision later upheld by the Ontario Court of Appeal. The indoor track was closed for construction in 2018 and scheduled to be reopened in 2020. Curiosity Some scenes from the Canadian series Heated Rivalry were filmed in this athletic centre.

DeCew House

DeCew House (variably spelt DeCow, Du Coo or DeCou) was built c.1808 in Thorold Township, Upper Canada. The two-story house had limestone walls 66 centimetres (26 in) thick. Early history John DeCew was a captain in the 2nd Lincoln Militia during the War of 1812 who spent almost a year as a prisoner of war. During his absence, his house was used by the British army as a detachment headquarters under the command of Lieutenant James FitzGibbon. The house is remembered as the destination of Laura Secord's celebrated journey to warn the British of a planned American attack. Thanks to her warning, FitzGibbon was prepared for the attack, and in the ensuing Battle of Beaver Dams was able to secure the surrender of an American force of approximately 500 men. Following the war, DeCew lived in the house with his wife Katharine, raising eleven children and operating a mill (a predecessor of the Morningstar Mill) a short distance away. He sold the house when he relocated to Haldimand County in 1834. The house was purchased by David Griffiths, and he and his descendants occupied the house until 1942. At that time, the property was acquired by the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario (a predecessor of Ontario Power Generation). Most of the surrounding land was flooded to create Lake Gibson as a reservoir for hydroelectric power generation purposes. The house, being on high land, was not flooded and continued to stand unoccupied. In 1950, it was destroyed by a fire. Modern history In January 2008, John Burtniak, chair of Thorold's War of 1812 bicentennial committee, urged the City of Thorold to acquire the property to assure the protection of this important historical asset. However, Thorold Council rejected the proposal citing the cost of upkeep. Despite this, the City of Thorold assumed ownership of the DeCou House in early 2011 from the Ontario Power Generation for a nominal fee, completing a restoration project in October of that year. Due to the historical significance of the structure, the lower part of the stone walls were preserved. The Power Commission installed a flagstone floor and a plaque explaining the history of the structure. The Laura Secord Legacy Trail was established to commemorate Secord's walk on June 22, 2013; the 200th anniversary of it. See also Morningstar Mill References
DeGroote School of Business

The DeGroote School of Business is one of six faculties at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The School of Business was founded in 1952 but was renamed in 1992 in honour of successful Canadian entrepreneur and philanthropist Michael G. DeGroote. The DeGroote school offers (Hon) B.Commerce, MBA and Ph.D. degrees. The current dean is Dr. Khaled Hassanein. The business school is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Commerce program The school offers a Bachelor of Commerce degree. The program's first two years provide a foundation of business, while the latter two years are for specialization in a functional business area. Once students have completed their second year at the school, they are then admitted to either the honours commerce program or to the regular B.Comm program. To enter into the honours program, students must have completed all required courses with no failures and have a cumulative average of at least 5.0. After the third year, DeGroote Commerce students have an internship option, with a term of 12 to 16 months. Partners for the internship program include Procter & Gamble, RBC, CIBC, CPPIB, Dofasco, Manulife, Deloitte, IBM, Microsoft, Ford and others. MBA program The MBA program was introduced in 1962 and in 1973, the Co-op MBA option was added. DeGroote is differentiated from other Canadian business schools by its focus on experiential learning through co-op. Also unique to DeGroote is a specialization in Health Services Management. A typical graduating class consists of 30% Finance, 30% Health, and 25% Marketing majors; the school also offers Accounting, Strategic Business Valuation, eBusiness, Innovation & New Technology, Operations Management, Information Systems and Human Resources streams. Because of the co-op option, the school's average age is relatively young (typically 25–26 at admission); the co-op MBA is the longest full-time MBA in Canada, at 28 months. Master of Finance Program The Master of Finance program at the DeGroote School of Business provides students with an in-depth training in finance, emphasizing the development of the analytical skills required to address the increasingly complex problems faced by the financial industry. Allen H. Gould Trading Floor The school also houses the Allen H. Gould Trading Floor, an educational tool that enables students to experience the relationships and interactions of the financial markets. It is one of the first such facilities in North America, one of three in Canada, and one of only 30 in the world. Suspensions In 2013, a tribunal made up of 3 professors recommended suspensions for five tenured professors due to violations of the school's anti-discrimination policy. Other faculty members protested the suspensions. An Ontario court later reduced the suspensions and ordered compensation. References External links Official website Allen H. Gould Trading Floor

Chelsea Hotel, Toronto

The Chelsea Hotel, Toronto is the largest hotel in Canada, located at 33 Gerrard Street West in Toronto, Ontario. The 24 floor, 83.72 metres (274.7 ft) hotel contains 1,590 guest rooms and suites, with 5 basements and 18 elevators. History The structure originally received funding from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation to be constructed as a student housing cooperative and then was planned as a residential condominium building. However, it eventually opened as a hotel on October 15, 1975, operated by Delta Hotels as Delta's Chelsea Inn. The hotel was purchased in 1996 by Great Eagle Holdings of Hong Kong. On December 19, 2012, Great Eagle Holdings announced it would end its management agreement with Delta Hotels on July 1, 2013, and place the property, by then known as Delta Chelsea Toronto, under the control of its subsidiary, Langham Hospitality Group in their Eaton Hotels division, which has since been rebranded as Eaton Workshop Hotels. It was reported that Great Eagle Holdings would not commit to renovations that Delta sought in order to upgrade the hotel. Ken Greene, president and CEO of Delta Hotels, stated that "It was a tough decision to part ways", adding, "This is symbolic of the repositioning that Delta is going through. It definitely shows that we are very serious about becoming the leading four-star brand." Delta had announced that it was building a new flagship hotel (the Delta Toronto Hotel) in Toronto's South Core district as part of a development led by its parent company at the time, the British Columbia Investment Management Corporation. The hotel changed its name to the Eaton Chelsea on July 1, 2013. In 2016, although still part of Langham Hospitality Group, the hotel was removed from the Eaton Brand and renamed Chelsea Hotel Toronto. References External links Official website

Brockville station

The Brockville railway station in Brockville, Ontario, Canada is served by Via Rail trains running from Toronto to Ottawa and Montreal. It is a staffed railway station, with ticket sales, outdoor parking, telephones, washrooms, and wheelchair access to the platform and trains. History Via Rail announced in November 2009 that it would replace the historic 1872 Brockville station with a new $7-million facility. The initial proposal was scaled back; on November 10, 2010, Via Rail unveiled a second proposed design for a new station building. The 2,400-square-foot (220 m2) building was to cost $4.5 million CDN and would have been wheelchair accessible, with space to accommodate expanded track lines. Once the proposed development was to have been completed, the old railway station building was planned to be demolished; that move met with local opposition. As passenger volumes remain low, Via returned to the drawing board and proposed a million-dollar renovation of the existing station with a new roof, exterior brick, lighting, doors, and windows. An automatic door and accessibility improvements would be added for people with disabilities, and a building adjacent to the station would be demolished and replaced with a passenger shelter. According to Brockville mayor David Henderson, "It's clearly something that set off some alarm bells in the local community, because we do have a very historical aspect to this old city. What was good is that Via Rail, and the people at Via Rail, they responded." The renovations were completed in July 2015. Services As of July 2025, Brockville station is served by 5 to 7 trains per day to Ottawa, two trains per day to Montreal and 7 to 9 trains per day to Toronto. The station features an indoor waiting area open prior to all train departures, and a staffed ticket counter during the day. References External links Via Rail station page for Brockville station

El edificio de 220 m2 costaría 4,5 millones de dólares canadienses y habría sido accesible para sillas de ruedas, con espacio para acomodar líneas de vías ampliadas.​ Una vez que se completara el desarrollo propuesto, se planeó demoler el antiguo edificio de la estación de tren;​ esa medida encontró oposición local. Como el volumen de pasajeros sigue siendo bajo, Via volvió a la mesa de dibujo y propuso una renovación de un millón de dólares de la estación existente con un nuevo techo, ladrillo exterior, iluminación, puertas y ventanas. Se añadiría una puerta automática y mejoras de accesibilidad para personas con discapacidad, y se derribaría un edificio adyacente a la estación y se sustituiría por un refugio para pasajeros. Según el alcalde de Brockville, David Henderson, "es claramente algo que hizo sonar algunas alarmas en la comunidad local, porque tenemos un aspecto muy histórico en esta antigua ciudad. Lo bueno es que Via Rail, y la gente de Via Rail, ellos respondieron."​ Las renovaciones se completaron en julio de 2015.​ Servicios ferroviarios A partir de enero de 2023, la estación de Brockville cuenta con dos rutas nacionales (con conexiones) proporcionadas por Via Rail, el principal operador ferroviario de pasajeros en Canadá.​ Ottawa-Toronto No hay servicio local entre Ottawa y Fallowfield, o Guildwood y Toronto en estos trenes.​​ Montreal-Toronto No hay servicio local entre Montreal y Dorval, o Guildwood y Toronto en estos trenes.​​ Referencias Enlaces externos
