I wake up to the sound of the waves hitting the rocks
I run to open the curtains and let the breeze caress my face
The sound of the geese flying over the water is music to my ears
As the boats at the port are hitting the docks
The sunrise paints the horizon with divine art
First, forming red roses with the clouds, yes, this will be a day of love
as the sun comes out, the sky turns yellow, full of hope
Shining over the water as the lake takes part
Yes, this will be a special day of art,
Paint the town red,
say the street signs with a heart,
wearing red would be smart
Soon the parade will start
The children enjoy the Ferris wheel and cotton candy
And others line up for face painting,
Or the ice cream handy.
Mom and dad greet the food vendors, hmmm the menu is plenty
Grandma and grandpa laugh at the red balloon hunting
While eating a funnel cake that’s tempting
The restaurant tables are on the side walks
Inviting people in with delicious food aromas,
As the band at the stage blasts
People dance to all kinds of music
Oh oh oh, freeze, the music stopped and so did the rides
People that were sitting in front of the stage now stand up
Everyone proudly raises a flag, as though a fighting sword
Yes, paint the town red,
Hats are red
t-shirts are red
dresses are red
but most importantly,
our flag is white and red
with a proud maple leaf that’s red
Let’s all break the silence singing together
“OH Canada” as true patriots with love
for our home and native land.
Dressed with red and white, the Councillor salutes,
and I’m happy to shake his hand.
There is happiness and love in the crowds,
In the city, in the whole country, not just the town.
Canada, it’s your birthday, our birthday
Together we’ll blow your 158 candles at sunset
and united we’ll enjoy with glowing hearts at night,
the fireworks that rise over the water up to the sky
a colorful and shinny picture of almighty
The lights sent up to the sky
Fall onto the lake as though 158 stars
That brighten our eyes in awe
God keep our land glorious and free
Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

WATER INTERRUPTION NOTICE
Watermain replacement and improvement
1830 Dundas Street East Project 18-1310 C2
Peel Region regularly maintains and repairs the watermains in your area. Sometimes, we need to turn off your water supply while we do this work.
Your water will be turned off on Wednesday August 6th, 2025, between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other unexpected events, we’ll let you know the new date and time.
Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption
As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:
• Notify all residents/tenants in the building of the upcoming water interruption. A poster is included for posting in highly visible areas (lobbies, mailrooms, and/or elevators) or photocopying for each unit.
• Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
• Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
• Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.
After the water interruption
When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise. We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (starting in the basement/first floor and finishing on the top floor). You’ll likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds. Run the water until it is clear and any vibration or noise has stopped.
Important note
After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:
• 905-791-7800, extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
• 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)
