Winter visitor safety

Parks Canada wishes to remind users to be cautious at all times when using the banks of the Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue Canal in the winter, as the snow-covered surfaces can be slippery. In order to take full advantage of your visit safely and to avoid any incident, here are some tips to follow:

• The use of shoes adapted to winter conditions can help to reduce the risk of falling.
• Avoid crossing railings and keep at a safe distance from the canal walls to avoid slipping.
• For safety reasons, it is forbidden to venture on the ice that forms on the Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue Canal in winter and to practice ice skating.
