A short but beautiful #sunset at Murphy’s Point Provincial Park last night. The clouds cleared just enough to give me a peek. @OntarioParks #ontario #Canada

The Mazinaw Rock seen at Bon Echo Provincial Park is breathtaking. This majestic cliff overlooking Lake Mazinaw is 300ft high. #OntarioParks #Canada.

Today one of our Sector Chiefs encountered an 11-year-old skating on unsafe ice at Mahogany Landing in Manotick and asked him to leave due to open water.
We’ve seen many community groups raise concerns about kids on unsafe ice.
Please stay off the ice.
No ice is safe ice. 🚫🧊🚫

With sadness, we heard of Ryan Lythall's passing (@rolling_enigma). He was a strong voice through his long-time advocacy for persons with disabilities in Ottawa, especially for improving public transit. He will be missed by many. Our condolences to his family and friends.
