I didn't see this mentioned anywhere. I am not sure if this the best sub-forum for this topic, but it seems as good as any. Mods, feel free to move this where you think this is most appropriate.
Scarborough Waterfront Project
Project Brief (PDF)
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) has initiated a study under the Environmental Assessment Act to create a new waterfront park along the Lake Ontario shoreline from Bluffer's Park to East Point Park in Toronto, Ontario. The purpose of the project is the creation of a destination park featuring a system of linked scenic landscapes both along the top of the bluffs and at the water's edge integrating shoreline regeneration, public access and safety, and natural heritage. The first step in the process is to produce and submit a Terms of Reference (ToR) to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change. The Terms of Reference sets out the framework and work plan for addressing the requirements of the Environmental Assessment Act, including alternatives that will be considered and the public consultation activities that will be carried out. A key component of developing the Terms of Reference will be public consultation, providing opportunities for members of the general public (including, affected stakeholders, public interest groups and any other interested parties) to learn about and provide input on the proposed project, environmental assessment process, development of the ToR and studies to be undertaken.

Basically, this is an initiative by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to link up the paths and spruce up the parks where necessary, on the top of the cliffs and along the shoreline, from Bluffer's Park (in Cliffside-Cliffcrest, Brimley Ave) to East Point Park (Manse Valley (east of Guildwood), east of Morningside Ave).
Obviously it's still very, very early in the process, but it's a good start. We'll see how all this progresses.
