Aquatic Weed Harvesting Rideau Canal System

Aquatic Weed Harvesting is the Real Answer to Aquatic Weed Control.

Aquatic Weed Havesting

Periodic weed harvesting of your waterfront areas will in many instances prove to be an effective means of aquatic plant control. The rooted aquatic weeds must produce sufficient food in their leaves to maintain their root systems. Frequent cuttings of the leaves will eventually lead to death of the root system. Like weeding the garden, it is necessary to watch for the early development of potential problems and remove the AQUATIC WEEDS as they become established and before they spread over large areas.

The more Aquatic Weeds you remove during the spring, summer and fall the less aquatic weeds that will be on your lake front or pond.

Call Jason at www.SeaweedDoctor.com by telephone at 613 530 0486 to help with your complete Aquatic Control of Lake Weeds and full removal and disposal of aquatic plant growth.

Providing chemical free aquatic weed harvesting in the Rideau Lakes area and the Rideau Waterways and lakes in Eastern Ontario.

Approved by the Ministry of National Resources and Parks Canada who control the Rideau Canal Waterways.

No Weeds, No Muck, No Labor

Attention Cottage Owners,

Are you experiencing aquatic weeds taking over your shoreline, preventing you from enjoying a refreshing swim or causing your boat propellers to get tangled? This is an increasing problem in most lakes and ponds in the Rideau Lakes area.

There are a few solutions to control lake and pond weeds and seaweed removal without using harmful chemicals or slaving away for hours without removing the actual problem.

The WeedRoller detaches existing weeds and agitates the lake bed, leaving your swimming and docking area free of lake weeds. This prevents more weed growth for a clean, sandy lake bottom and a pleasant swimming area.

Another solution is to take advantage of the Aquatic Weed Harvester Service offered by Seaweed Doctor. Check our website www.seaweeddoctor.com.

Call Jason for a free estimate and evaluation of your shoreline at 613-530-0486.

A Look Back at the Year Gananoque’s Police Service Had

2009 was undeniably a tough year for Gananoque. One of those affected by last year’s economic crisis was the town’s police force. The Gananoque Police Service was forced to make concessions and work with a significantly reduced operating budget. In spite of this, they still managed to come up with new initiatives like a new official web site, which has drastically improved communication between the force and the town’s residents.

And while times were hard, Gananoque’s police officers remained steadfast and worked hard to patrol the town’s many streets and corners by foot, bicycle, and vehicle. Police presence was noticeable and undoubtedly helped in preventing crime and mischief in areas like schools, parking lots, and more.

Furthermore, police officers in Gananoque made efforts to help the community by holding lectures in the town’s many schools and educational facilities. Topics discussed ranged from road safety, crime prevention, drug awareness, and more. Last year’s National Reading week also saw officers in elementary schools reading to children.

And as the year came to an end, Gananoque’s police force stepped up to the plate once more, this time lending a hand to raise funds for the Special Olympics, as well as the region’s Salvation Army Christmas Food Basket program.

Indeed, 2009 was a tough year for our police force, but that certainly didn’t stop them from trying to make our community a better place to live in.

Gananoque Police Now Offers Online Criminal Record Check

As of July 15, 2009, the Gananoque Police Service is proud to offer a brand new online method of completing a criminal record check. While residents of Gananoque Ontario can still get a criminal record check the old way by visiting the police precinct themselves, authorities says to the public that the new online service will be more convenient and faster. The Gananoque Police Service performs the online check, but instead of you waiting ten days for a paper response, myBackCheck sends you your results electronically via the internet. This process usually takes place in a span of only two working days. More importantly, the new online method costs the same as the old one; $30.

myBackCheck service makes the process safe, fast and simple. All you have to do is register an account and order your criminal record check. Results are submitted to you in your own account, and sharing the criminal record check with the party requesting it is easily accomplished by selecting their name from a drop-down list, very similar to paying your bill via your online bank account.

You can log on to http://www.backcheck.net/gananoque/ and begin the process.

The Gananoque Police Service assures the public that getting a criminal record check in person is still very possible. This can be done by heading down to the Gananoque Police Station during office hours, Monday to Friday and furnish two pieces of valid identification with photos and a birth certificate.
