It has come to my attention that dog owners are letting dogs walk in parks off-leash. Please be reminded that COVID-19 is not an excuse to ignore regular by-laws. The fine for allowing dogs to run off-leash in any City park is up to $260.
Pet owners have also been reported to be not picking up droppings in parks. The fine for not picking up droppings is $240.

Government of Canada
·The Government of Canada is putting an additional $1.1 billion into a national research and medical strategy to address the virus. This plan consists of:
o Research into vaccines – In addition to the original funding announced earlier, $150 million is invested across the country to support research conducted at hospitals and universities.
o Support for clinical trials - $662 million is pledged to help conduct clinical trials as vaccines can take months to develop and release to the public
