Ottawa's Rideau Canal Skateway will not open this winter, making this season the first one ever without the popular pastime and tourist draw.
CBC NewsThe Rideau Canal Skateway, seen here on Jan. 5, will remain closed this winter for the first time since the National Capital Commission first cleared a short section of ice more than 50 years ago.The National Capital Commission said Friday afternoon the closure is disappointing, but the weather didn't co-operate.
"This winter's higher-than-average temperatures, snow and rain … contributed to a thin and porous ice surface,""The latest ice tests show that the ice surface remains unsafe. Any further efforts are unlikely to yield a different result."
