Ontario's auditor general found the bidding process for building a mega-spa at Ontario Place was "not fair, transparent or accountable", leading to massive cost overruns.
The report highlights how the project's cost has ballooned from C$300m to more than C$2.2bn, exacerbated by the controversial relocation of the Ontario Science Centre.
Ontario's government has been criticized for giving preferential treatment in the bidding process, particularly towards the Therme wellness company, violating procurement rules.
Over 90,000 people have opposed the relocation of the Ontario Science Centre, a move deemed expensive compared to repairing its former Raymond Moriyama-designed building.
