Emilie Cote, director, Recreation, Community and Culture:
“There are so many different opportunities to find your favourite activity. We have our greenspaces, parks and trails which are free, and we have a large variety of drop-in and registered programs designed for people of all ages and abilities. Having fun and being active and social can have so many positive mental and physical health benefits. Recreation can provide all of those things.”
