As I watch the tragic events in the Ukraine unfold, my thoughts turn to those of Ukrainian descent in our own community. We stand with you in offering our condolences to all who remain at risk in the Ukraine. Your ancestors arrived in Timmins over many generations and their contributions to Timmins, as well as your own, cannot be denied. The Ukrainian culture is part of our City’s past, present and future.

We are proud that the Ukrainian flag flies in our Schumacher Flag Park and today, we have also raised the country’s flag at City Hall in honour of the people of the Ukraine. We stand together in support our Ukrainian residents, neighbors, and friends here in Timmins.

Fake off-leash signs with the City of Timmins logo have been found posted along the Bart Thompson Trail in South Porcupine and the City wants to be clear that on all trails, with the exception of the Rainbow Loop at Hersey Lake Conservation Area, your dog must be on a leash.

“Off-leash areas in the city are clearly marked with correct, authorized signage,” says City Clerk Steph Palmateer. “We ask that dog owners keep their pets on a leash for the safety of other residents using our trial system and for the safety of the animal. The signs being posted along the Bart Thompson Trail and possibly others are fake and pet owners could still be found in violation of our City by-law and, if so, responsible for a set fine of $90.”

There are two designated off-leash areas in the City of Timmins for your dog. One is the dog park off Mattagami Blvd. South and one is the Rainbow Loop at Hersey Lake Conservation Area, which is maintained by the Mattagami Region Conservation Authority (MRCA). Trails maintained by the MRCA are clearly marked with an on-leash sign.
