I have zero issues with a focus on creating a permanent downtown post-secondary campus. In fact, I think it's a great a idea, and more than just part of a revitalization plan for downtown. Not only would access to this campus be easier from each end of the city for students and staff, the business ties and collaboration potential alone with would be valuable from an economic growth standpoint. The downtown integration of places like U of T, TMU and McGill really are convenient. The challenge will be sorting out what institution, or institutions, would be part of this plan. I imagine tech would be a big focus of this campus.
