I hope they do not close these museums, they give you a local view on history. Gibson House covers the Arc of the Rebellion, but focus on the Gibson family. You get to see how they lived. These mini museums are important to the history of Toronto, Ontario, and Canada.

Sorry to see it close. Something that we should have celebrated and promoted, was ignored. If 1/10 of the money spent on the TIFF was used to promote our museums and zoo and historic sites, they would be in much better shape.

There seems to be little or no money for places that are educational.

A sad day for history buffs. I hope they can relocate & reopen soon. I understand they were behind on the rent, but to refuse a payment and the lock them out is questionable in my mind. There seems to be a push on in Toronto to close anything remotely educational.

City budget problems lets close the Zoo's & Learning Farms  close branches and/or cut back hours at the library.

This is something that all levels of government should be supporting.

Downsview is the best spot in the Toronto area for the museum. It is in the city, there use to be an airport there, close to where planes use to be built.

I hope they can find a permeant home quickly.
