A massive ship that housed a restaurant on Toronto’s waterfront will soon be gone.

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

Captain John’s is set to be towed away to a ship yard in Port Colborne by the end of the month — the end of a long saga for what was once a Toronto landmark.

A federal court judge approved the sale to a ship scrapper after it was seized by the court last year over back taxes and berthing fees that exceeded one-million dollars.

The former fine-dining restaurant was shut down by public health officials almost three years ago and has been sitting at the foot of Yonge Street ever since.
