Alex Duff Memorial Pool — Local services in Toronto

TOPIC DISCRIMINATION: I was with my 4 yr old child yesterday the pools are well taken care of, you may notice diaper gel in the big pool due to parents not knowing the difference between water diapers but staff seem to be on top of it by cleaning up. The are pool rules around the deck and an area to store strollers fantastic to accommodate families, plus anyone with accessibility great so far "yes?". But I was discriminated by one of the staff and for this the score is low. What did I do, I looked around for rules regarding eating snack ok my child was eating an apple. I saw no big dea, theres no rules posted anywhere and I had seen 2 sexy females with tiny bikinis eating subway sandwiches, another female eating a bowl of grapes, another group of 3 eating from 2 bags of potato chips, yes sexy females with flat stomachs and small bikinis. I am a mom of twins, clearly my body no longer wears small bikinis and I was not having a picnic either. This male worker walks by my child and me, points to a corner by the balcony or washrooms telling me,"no eating on deck, eat over there". Discrimination yes if your picking on me for feeding a 4 yr old child an apple why is it that I am treated different and he said and did nothing about the others that were sitting and eating a few feet from me? Day 2: sat by the lap testing area, beside me there was an old man eating a sandwich; a mother and child eating chicken; 3 teens eating potato chips, yet no one said a thing to them. Yes I sat in the same spot as the day before. Discrimination is when a person is treated...

One of the best things about being in Toronto is having fun for all ages. Now with the heat the public pools are reopened, and that means guaranteed fun.

Alex Duff is right next to the park, with easy access to the green metro line and several bus stops. The location is great, with many restaurants and shops along the avenue.

As it is a public environment, it is subject to capacity, so it is important to pay attention to the hours and days. The place is open from 12h to 20h and has an incredible structure!

The entrance is flat, with a good floor for people who use wheelchairs, walkers and canes. Bathrooms and changing rooms to serve the public with mobility and visual impairments. The locker rooms have lockers and it is necessary to talk to the team to use them.

The central pool has a water access ramp, which helps the elderly and people with physical needs move around.

The entry of food and non-alcoholic drinks is allowed, but pay attention to your garbage and dispose of it correctly.

The site has a children's pool, a central pool with a ramp, a pool with a slide and a semi-shallow pool. The pools are all monitored by lifeguards.

It's really...

They have 4 pools including a kid pool and hot tub. The place is outdoors and is located right in the middle of Christie Pits Park. Today on Canada day the pool was open so they open every day until 8pm. They have lifeguards all around the pools as well. The thing is today I went there and it is unfortunate to say the pools were really dirty and unkempt I don't think will be going back the smell of weird skunk or something like that around the toddler pool was too strong ..it could be all the water sitting there not cleaned properly or something I don't really know. Washrooms as well very dirty but for a free pool I guess that is what you could expect. Last year I went few times and the pools were okay not like today, so that is why I still give it a 3 stars probably today was not a good day. Anyway it is a good place for all ages I just hope in the future the pool gets...
