Greenspace Alliance of Canada's Capital

This photo shows where two large piles of rock have been placed in the north channel (Park Swale), just upstream of where it connects with Findlay Creek. These rock piles block fish passage, cause pollution and silt from erosion upstream of them to accumulate, and due to a lack of flow will most likely cause that channel to freeze to the bottom in winter. This is harmful alteration to fish habitat. It will also result in fish stranding.
