CanStockPhoto.com imageOne Wellington North councillor thinks there is too much red tape for small community groups trying to raise money through a raffle or draw.
Dan Yake says a small church raffle has to jump through almost as many hoops as a hospital does for a million dollar lottery.
He would like to see Wellington North raise the issue with the Minister responsible for Alcohol and Gaming at the Good Roads Convention in February.
Mayor Andy Lennox says the issue may be raised, but no decision has been made.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.
The annual Canada Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, from Wildwood Park to Kenwick Park.
The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
