The Raise The Roof hockey tournament raises funds to support the full-size outdoor hockey rink in Calabogie, Ont.
The full-size hockey rink is covered with an end-to-end roof with new amenities being added every year, and it's paid for by the community.
"This weekend we're going to be around another $15,000 between all the different teams participating, various donations, and sponsors." "It's a good fundraiser that got this place going, so having the roof has been a bit of a game changer around here." "The backyard feel and the hometown feel, that's what this has and it brings you back to your childhood memories."

BoC to raise rates by 25 bps to peak of 4.50% on Jan. 25: Reuters pollThe Bank of Canada will hike its key interest rate by a modest quarter point to 4.50% on Jan. 25 and then hit pause on an aggressive tightening campaign, according to a Reuters poll of economists, with risks skewed toward a higher peak.
