    Myles, Thanks for the quiz!
    Update re closed washrooms at Scarborough Bluffs. A friend wrote to Councillor Crawford whose office staff responded. Councillors are very vulnerable on this topic of closed washrooms in winter so always good that we complain to them. Here is his answer:

    “Parks staff have advised: Yes, the west washrooms will be open all season, the east are closed for the season. However there was an issue this weekend that just pasted as the contractors that are responsible for cleaning and opening the washrooms seem to have failed to do so. This issue should not happen again.”
