Serious issue. I’m a long time dog owner with a property that backs onto the park
Yes increased use during the pandemic but the article fails to acknowledge increased population growth and need for recreation space. Furthermore #Saanich has absolutely failed with reducing wet areas on the paths by managing drainage or using mulch. This has been a problem for 10 or more years
We saw joggers pushing new trails during the pandemic. Yet off leash dogs were given as the problem.
Complex problems where a simple solution failed to address key issues. More usage by increasing population!
Is it a park or conservation area?

Sunset, seen from outer lobby seating area windows, at Jubilee Hospital, 5North East wing.

New film going in. Sample shots I have seen online look really punchy. Anyone tried it out yet? There's quite a bit down at Camera Traders if interested. #yyj #photography

If you're in #Saanich / #VictoriaBC & able to give me some rides to/from hospital over next little while, I'd really appreciate that help. I don't have enough money to spend $50/day just for taxi transportation to/from hospital. I'm off work for all of September to be there for Mom.

If you want to understand more about how white privilege works, especially in Victoria, BC, Canada - try suggesting developing a data centre in middle of Oak Bay - the richest, the whitest, the most privileged population in this city.
I'll bet my life, Mom's life, both my brother's lives - it would not go through, after only one council meeting, because super rich elites would not want that in their backyards. They're OK having it in our lesser privileged backyards though.
That's the same municipality that refused to build or convert unused old buildings into more affordable housing. They're completely against any type of social housing or supportive housing for our most marginalized citizens too.

Saanich Fair was this weekend. Lots of fun! I took this light-painting style photo of the Midway Amusements rides, inspired by a photo I saw a few days ago.

I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of this city. #yyj
102km loop around Greater Victoria and out to Sooke Potholes. Perfect weather for a fun ride with friends, almost entirely on protected bike network. Humpback Road is closed to through traffic years ago now and is a treat to ride.
