   Comments: The City of Kingston has rarely been enlightened , but this is a new low point. As an ex Director of the Museum, I know how many hours of FREE labour it took to maintain this facility. The City simply can't afford to close it if it wants to keep it.

   Comments: I can hardly believe that the municipality of Kingston has not attended to the matter of a lease renewal with the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes. The Marine Museum of the Great Lakes not only preserves our extensive history on the lakes but also is a significant tourist draw for the Kingston area. In a time where Kingston’s downtown area has been under pressure to bring people in the idea of loosing the museum seems ludicrous to me.

   Comments: This is an opportunity for the new council to support important cultural and historical property, materials, and information. Museums a few and far between in Southeastern Ontario outside of Ottawa. I would see failure to make and keep this museum strong is another way that Kingston municipal government talks the talk but does not walk the walk in it's tourism advertising campaign except for Hockey, hockey, hockey

   Comments: The idea is wrong. Before anything happens the people of Kingston need to see as plan. There are undoubtedly issues that are not in the open that may have to do with due diligence, public safety and the like. Kingston is a historic city. If there's one activity the city of Kingston should support beyond basic municipal responsibilities such as paving roads, it is protection and promotion of heritage.

    Comments: Any attempt to oust the Marine Museum without full disclosure by the City and The Marine Museum board is wrong . In the absence of a city position the museum board should post the situation from their current perspective.

    Comments: The more interesting sites for general public access the better. Attracting/Enabling the public to make use of the waterside location is a higher-order good in terms of facility and land use planning

    Comments: No only should the Marine Museum stay where it is but the surrounding site should be developed into a historic site by draining and exposing the historic Dry Dock and having the Alexander Henry within the dock as part of the istoric attraction. The are is also the site for the Wren's memorial garden and it is where the memorial plaques for the corvettes built in Kingston are located. What more could we ask for for a marine historic site.

    Comments: One only has to see the interest on the faces of the many children who we guide thru' this pricelessmuseum to know the importance of future generations understanding of the importance of the Great Lakes, and the important role Kingston has played in this evolution.

    Comments: The Marine Museum of the Great Lakes is an important cultural and historical resource, and its location is entirely appropriate - in fact, it is ideal. What planned usage by the City of Kingston could be more important to the people of Kingston and of Canada

    Comments: It would be an unconsionable and retrograde step for both the heritage/tourism quality of Kingston, and its unique maritime legacy, if the Museum were uprooted by bureaucratic inertia: how will tomorrow's children learn about the Great Lakes story; what will American and other tourists think of a community which lets its past slip away

    Comments: As the Kingston waterfront continues to be devastated by high-rise development, I believe it is of absolute importance to maintain every possible vestige of waterfront heritage. The Marine Museum, dry dock, & Alexander Henry are critical aspects of our past & must be protected.

    Comments: Kingston's waterfront is already cut up. Unlike many cities the general population has poor access to it. The Marine Museum is one of the few wonterfront uses that makes sense and keeps the water open for use by all.

    Comments: I strongly endorse the continued presence of the MMGL on Kingston's downtown waterfront as an important part of Canada's heritage and Kingston's culture and new-economy. It's support should be a City priority.
