Ottawa Residents on Winter Plans After Canal Closure - Replies by 5pm

With the canal drained, what are your winter plans? Hi everyone, I’m a local journalist working on a story and I’m curious how people are feeling about the canal being drained this winter. Since skating won’t be an option there this year, are you planning to go somewhere else? Are there other spots or activities you’re turning to instead? I’m hoping to hear from a range of people. If you’re open to sharing, it would really help if I could get replies by tomorrow around 5pm. Thank you so much!
