New waterpark near Ottawa, Ontario

[Skyscraper]

Nobody saw that in the news last september ?

It's in french only so I will translate it for you !

 

Valcartier waterpark coming Limoges, Ontario.

 

Valcartier Holidays approaches the Ontarian East.

The owner of the company deposited an offer of purchase in Counties of Prescott and Russell during last days in order to build a waterpark on 332 acres of ground in Limoges. The land concerned is localised between road 300 West and the transcanadian highway(road 417), exit 79, and would bring wavepools, slides and other waterpark structures.

 

“It is something major”, announced the promoter, Guy Drouin, being limited to say that the project rose to several million dollars, without giving a correct figure. It confirms that all its efforts will be concentrated on the site of the Nation for the time being, even if it considered some others sites.

 

The second waterpark of Village Valcartier will not be a copy of its predecessor in the north of Quebec city; No activity is planned for the winter either, because of the lack of a mountainous relief.

 

This new multi-million waterpark will be opening in 2008, will be creating about 400 jobs.

That's good news. The area around Ottawa needs some atrractions, besides the museums and parliament hill. Something even better would be if the area got an amusement park.
