My family and I went for a day of skating down by the bay. We live within walking distance so we are familiar with the area and all it’s amenities. We love the waterfront trust!
Unfortunately at our trip to the skating rink we were all met with disappointment.
My child has a disability and I needed to get in the ice with them but without any skates on otherwise I’d be on the floor lol.. the Man who supervises the rink told me I was not allowed to get on the ice despite her disability. I was truly shocked and disgusted by this.

These poor people don't know if they will have jobs in the near future or next summer for the summer staff Having to find out about this through the media is disgraceful. This is not a person that we want representing us in Ward 2. Perhaps he doesn't care about the employees in his ward since he does not live there. We feel so bad for the people that work there being treated in such a...
