From MPP Graydon Smith
“Recently, it has come to my attention that there is considerable concern amongst snowmobilers and local businesses about the District of Muskoka potentially opposing a request, presented by the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs, that would allow trails to operate as they have for decades in our area.
As someone who grew up in Muskoka riding those trails often, and as someone whose parents’ small business benefited from the economic benefits that snowmobiling provides our area, I’m hopeful that District Council will be able to support a direction that allows the continuation of an activity that helps define us as Muskokans.
I have always and will always support the snowmobile clubs and snowmobilers of Parry Sound-Muskoka. Snowmobiling is a part of our cultural fabric, and I’ll do everything I can to ensure its continued success and viability.
Clearly, winter is off to a roaring start. Let’s hope we can all take advantage of what we have been given to have a fun winter that makes the most of our incredible, unsurpassed trails.”
