While some county beaches have reopened, others have closed back down due to overcrowding and other concerns. Wilson said since the health unit is inundated with all things coronavirus, the City of Windsor has hired a third party to test beach water quality at Sandpoint Beach. “The water has not been tested yet and so we want to make sure it’s safe before people do that.” “We’re asking people not to go in the water yet,” said Jan Wilson, executive director of the city’s parks and culture department.

On Thursday afternoon, Ward 9 Alderman Gian-Carlo Carra tweeted that traffic following the Alyth Yard train derailment was f_ed (edited) up.Ĭarra says his tweet was the result of a ridiculous situation in his ward. Over the last few weeks, two Members of the Legislative Assembly and a Calgary councillor have been caught cursing, either in public or online.
