General Motors Centre

The General Motors Centre "The GM Centre" opened in 2006 and is a multi-purpose arena located in downtown Oshawa, Ontario. The GM centre was constructed as a replacement for the outdated Oshawa Civic Auditorium. The main tenants are the Oshawa Generals of the Ontario Hockey League, the Oshawa Power of the National Basketball League of Canada, and the Oshawa Machine, of the Canadian Lacrosse League. The state of the art facility also features the Oshawa Sports Hall of Fame, Prospects Bar and Grill, an Oshawa Generals retail store, executive seating and special club seats. As Durham Region’s premier Sports and Entertainment Facility, “Venues Today Magazine” ranked the General Motors Centre number 15 in their “2011 Year-End Top Stops” report for venues of 5,001-8,000 capacity!

Famous quotes containing the words general, motors and/or centre:

    The general will is always right.
    Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)

    When General Motors has to go to the bathroom ten times a day, the whole country’s ready to let go. You heard of that market crash in ‘29? I predicted that.... I was nursing a director of General Motors. Kidney ailment, they said; nerves, I said. Then I asked myself, “What’s General Motors got to be nervous about?” “Overproduction,” I says. “Collapse.”
    John Michael Hayes (b. 1919)

    To live and die amongst foreigners may seem less absurd than to live persecuted or tortured by one’s fellow countrymen.... But to emigrate is always to dismantle the centre of the world, and so to move into a lost, disoriented one of fragments.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
