We are doing a triple axel with the news that the green flag is up on the Trent Canal, meaning conditions are safe to skate there!

The City of Peterborough tweeted out the news Friday (January 6th) confirming it is now open but adding that the ice is a little rough as it hasn't been flooded yet...
