It was a pleasure to welcome Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau to Peterborough yesterday for a tour of our new net-zero fire station!
I took the opportunity to chat with the PM about our Housing Accelerator Fund application, and Warden Clark highlighted the #EOWC7in7 Plan.
Firefighters are always there when we need them. We’re committed to being there for them, too – including with investments like the one that helped fund this station in Peterborough.
Glad we could tour the place today and thank these brave women and men for all that they do.
We were thrilled to welcome Prime Minister Trudeau @CanadianPM for a tour of Fire Station 2 yesterday, an opportunity to showcase the state-of-the-art net-zero facility. @MayorPtbo & @PtboFireRescue Fire Chief Chris Snetsinger thanked #GoC@FCM_online for supporting this project.
Mayor Jeff Leal @MayorPtbo met with Prime Minister Trudeau this afternoon.
“It’s always a special honour when a Prime Minister visits our community. It was an opportunity to speak with the Prime Minister on a wide range of topics of importance to Peterborough,” the Mayor said.

Congrats to Vegas. I bet that was some party last night. Just how many Canadians did they have on the team? Beauty, Vegas Golden Knights have 24 Canadian players on their roster. Vegas Golden Knights have the most Canadian players among 31 other teams
