Sugarloaf Park event this weekend

Sugarloaf Park is getting ready for this weekend’s Sled Dogs Snowskate competition.

Events start this Friday, with the possibility of fireworks; and the races will take place on Saturday.

Snowskate competitions use modified boots with wide bottoms that are like skis but much shorter.

People will skate on the snow and ice at high speeds.

It is open to everyone at a cost of 25 dollars, which covers the boots needed and a ticket for the chair lift.

CRA website

The Canada Revenue Agency website is back in business.

The threat of hacking prompted the C-R-A to take the site offline Friday, saying it detected what it called an internet vulnerability.  The agency adds that it was a precaution, it wasn’t hacked; and there was no unauthorized access.

The Stats Can website was also taken down for the weekend but is back oline now.
