No Rideau Canal Skateway for Winterlude was no problem as people headed indoors where the ice and the crowds were perfect.
"Lots to take in, good atmosphere," said Nathan Ayer who brought his 4-year-old son to see the Ottawa 67s in action as they clinch a playoff spot. "First hockey game for this guy so he’s loving it.""It’s been pretty busy here it was a good rush," said Crust & Crate Lansdowne General Manager Pulkit Tanega.
"I know people are a bit disappointed with the canal but at least we have the Rink of Dreams open and people can skate on the final day of Winterlude," said Sutcliffe. A glimpse of the canal from a distance is they closest they’ll get. The warmer than average temperatures mean the Rideau Canal Skateway is still closed.
"We would normally have four locations on the ice surface itself," said co-owner Andy Cohen. "Three locations we were given permission to tear down because it’s not going to open."
