#OCHTenantTip In winter, please keep your windows and doors closed. This helps make sure your home stays warm and prevents frozen pipes and flooding.
Veuillez garder vos fenêtres et vos portes fermées. Cela permet de garder votre logement au chaud et d’éviter le gel des tuyaux et les inondations.

The Rideau Canal Skateway is fully open, all 7.8 kilometres of it. Being able to skate through the heart of our city is a big part of what makes winter in Ottawa special. Bundle up, skate safe, and make the most of it while conditions are great.
