Just a note for those who may swim in local waterways. There may be signs posted about harmful algae - this does not mean there is always harmful algae but that there has been in the past. People should be aware and watch for signs of algae blooms.
For more information on harmful algae blooms visit the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit's webpage or Ontario's 12 Point Plan on Harmful Algae Blooms. For information on drinking water during an algae bloom advisory visit Canada's Drinking Water Guidelines During Harmful Algae Blooms.
