Do NOT fly drones within 9 km of a #wildland #fire. You can put the safety of pilots and #FireRangers at risk. It’s dangerous and illegal. For more information visit ontario.ca/page/drones-water…

Great news from @OttawaBylaw : the Centrepointe bear has been chemically immobilized by NCC and will be relocated today at release site provided by MNR. OPS on site assisted. All went well.
Thanks to all the staff who helped save this bear!

Big Community Day Event #5: I was glad to join friends, colleagues and even my daughter filling sandbags in Constance Bay to help support this community-in-need.

We headed to Constance Bay to fill sandbags to help support this community-in-need. Hope you can make it out to help - and then climb a sand mountain?!?!?

Volunteers still needed at Constance Bay to support flooding relief. If you can make it for even an hour or two, it can make a big difference. #collegeward pls connect w @WCDRelief but you can just head on out to the Northwind Centre and be put to work. Pictures @BellaLieuGhosty

Nous avons besoin de bénévoles - veuillez consulter le site ottawaflood.ca ou vous présenter au centre communautaire de Constance Bay. Merci @Senators Chris Neil, Caitlin et tes coéquipiers pour l’aide dans la fabrication de sacs de sable. Si vous craignez une inondation sur votre propriété, n’oubliez pas de composer le 3-1-1. @_ClarkeKelly

Some great volunteers out here with us again today but we're still in need of more. If you're able to help your neighbours whose properties are in danger of spring flood damage, please contact WestCarletonRelief.ca.

Follow @WCDRelief for more information. These people know what they are doing.
Spent the morning in Constance Bay filling sandbags w @_ClarkeKelly and many neighbours. It’s an assembly line: there’s a shoveler, a fuller, a tie-er and a person to lift onto the flatbed trucks. There’s snacks and laughs. If you can find an hour or two head on out. 613-447-4446

2) If you're on natural gas, Enbridge requires you to provide a dry path to your gas meter. If that is not available, gas will need to be shut off at your home. 2/4
