The Ottawa Safety Council is looking to recruit close to 100 new guards to provide safety at intersections across the capital.
The Ottawa Safety Council, the not-for-profit that employs crossing guards in Ottawa, is facing a shortage of crossing guards weeks ahead of students’ return to school.
“As my kids have gotten old enough to go to school on their own, this is my little me-time job,” Murnaghan said. “If you like being outside, if you like giving back to the community and seeing these smiling faces of the kids and parents every day, it’s worth it.” Jamie Kwong, the executive director of the Ottawa Safety Council, says they need the community to step up to help make it safer on the streets for kids.
