Early yesterday morning, I parked my car at Bowesville Station and took a ride on the first-ever scheduled northbound trip on O-Train Line 2.

If you enjoy winter activities like skating, skiing, and sledding, please keep safety in mind as you and your loved ones head out to play. A properly fitted helmet, used for the sport or activity it is designed for, can help protect your head and reduce the risk of a serious brain injury.
Going to Winterlude this year in the Nation’s Capital? Ride the Sno-Bus for free to several official Winterlude sites. Hop on a Sno-Bus on Elgin Street at Sparks Street. Look for buses signed “Sno-Bus” at bus stops marked by Sno-Bus signs.
There are multiple services to help support entrepreneurs through the process of owning a business. Programs and services like the Business Ambassador Program and Business Licensing Centre are examples of these supports in action.
Love is in the air at the Library. Bring your kids to the Ruth E. Dickinson Branch for some Valentine’s Day fun ahead of the big day.
Make a difference in your community by volunteering on one of the City of Ottawa’s committees or boards. The City is recruiting residents to be public members on 7 committees/boards.
