Ward Boundary Review Takes a Bite out of Manor Park by Wes Smiderle the Recommendation Modify- on a Vote of 17-6 Dec The voice of the community for more than 70 years • January-February, 2021 • Vol. 72, No. 3 Neighbours, families and friends took to the ice of MacKay Lake following the first snowfall of the new year. Their energy and enthusiasm were palpable despite the drop in the temperature. However, the City of Ottawa has put a slight dampener on outdoor activities by mandating a limit of 25 people on sledding hills and rinks—with a reservation system being implemented for its refrigerated outdoor rinks. Ottawa’s Medical Officer of Health Dr. Vera Etches has also “strongly suggested” that everyone wear masks “as much as possible,” including while outside.Photo: Marie-Frédérique Caron Ward Boundary Review takes a bite out of Manor Park By Wes Smiderle the recommendation modify- on a vote of 17-6 Dec. 9. two city councillors when deal- “Community members ing Rideau-Rockcliffe’s cen- The community associa- ing with issues facing Manor feel strongly about their iden- An unexpected modification tral western boundary didn’t tions, councillor and residents Park as a whole. tity and are angry that they did to the Ottawa Ward Bound- emerge until November. raised many objections, in- In his motion, he said the not have the opportunity to be ary Review 2020 has resulted Despite outcry from the cluding the lack of any direct change “would effectively cut consulted,” said Coun.
