Municipal Life

At the start of the meeting, I highlighted the excellent performance of the City of NDIP’s employee hockey team at the 2025 edition of the Tournoi de hockey intermunicipal des équipes en entretien et en travaux publics (Inter-Municipal Hockey Tournament for maintenance and public works teams). This year, the team made it to the semi-finals wearing the NDIP colors. I was very touched by their kindness in making me my own jersey, which I proudly wore at the meeting. My sincere thanks. Well done to those who made up this blue and white collar team. Your participation in inter-municipal tournaments is another way of raising the profile of our beautiful city.

On Saturday, May 3, we had the great pleasure of highlighting the important contribution of volunteers to the NDIP life. Each year, the City Council takes advantage of this evening of recognition to thank all those who give generously of their time to support community, cultural and sports organizations. There’s no doubt that their commitment contributes to our quality of life. A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Prix Hubert-Leduc to Roseline Koehler for her long-standing involvement, notably with the Fondation du patrimoine Sainte-Jeanne-de-Chantal and the Société d’horticulture environnementale des villes de l’île Perrot.

Summer activities are back in our parks. The tennis and pickleball courts are already welcoming players. The water parks are scheduled to open in early June. Free activities such as yoga, zumba and station training, among others, will also be back in the parks during the first week of June. I invite you to consult the complete program on our website. Also take a look at the Culture sportive program, a new series of shows combining sport and culture. It’s sure to please!

This summer, council meetings will once again be held outdoors in our parks. In June, weather permitting, the meeting will be held in Parc des Éperviers. We look forward to seeing you there.
