    WARMINGTON: Border-town officials want easier access for American tourists?

    No Comments

    From the Toronto Sun:

    You can’t miss President Joe Biden at the top of Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls, but some Americans do.

    Something about a bureaucratic ArriveCan app, to be filled out ahead of time, asking for vaccine status, has slowed tourism down.

    “The tourism industry accounts for $105 billion in Canada, and 40,000 jobs are directly related to tourism here in Niagara,” Niagara Mayor Jim Diodati said Wednesday from Ottawa when he and other border-town mayors went to Parliament Hill to try to talk some sense in to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

    Ripley’s now a selfie heaven: Attraction on Clifton Hill embraces kitsch and social media clicks

    No Comments

    From Niagara This Week:

    The newest attraction on Clifton Hill is a selfie paradise.

    Ripley’s Selfie Studios, which opened at noon Thursday, offers 23 themed installations visitors can interact with. From a disco to a retro diner to a Niagara Falls tightrope, it’s meant to embrace the kitsch and get social media clicks.

    “We wanted something new, different and fresh,” said Peter Doyle, regional manager of Ripley Entertainment for Canada.

    “This really captures something very creative. It targets teenagers and young adults and they’ve been very successful elsewhere. You’re only restricted by your own creativity here.”

    From Niagara This Week:

    Completion of Niagara Falls Entertainment Centre has been delayed again.

    But Mayor Jim Diodati, who toured the 5,000-seat facility Wednesday, said he’s confident the public will be “thrilled” with the venue once it opens.

    Work on the $130-million theatre at Stanley Avenue and Murray Street began in fall 2017.

    At the time, officials said the 18,000-square-metre building, which will be connected to Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort by an enclosed pedestrian walkway, was expected to open in June 2019.
