As happens every year, snow hills are being created for Winterlude's "Snowflake Kingdom," in February, when visitors to the park will be able to have fun sliding down them at high speed.

Making snow
In the Jacques-Cartier Park on the north bank of the Ottawa River there isn't enough snow, so they're making some.
A dozen of us went across to Gatineau to visit a friend who lives on the seventh floor of an appartment block overlooking this park––she also has a marvellous view of Parliament Hill and the other famous sights of the city––and so got a bird's eye view of the snow-making equipment in action, sending out steamy clouds of the white stuff.
