The Township of North Kawartha has lowered flags at all municipal facilities to half-mast in recognition of the victims of the tragic mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, which occurred on February 10, 2026.

Flags will remain at half-mast until sunset on February 17, 2026, at which time they will be returned to full mast in accordance with the federal directive.

The Township extends its condolences to the victims, their families, and all those affected by this tragedy.

The Township is exploring options for public electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to support residents, seasonal property owners, visitors, and local businesses. Your feedback will help us determine:

• Where stations should be located
•  What type of chargers are most needed
•  How often they would be used
•  How EV charging could support local businesses and tourism
• Whether you own an EV or not, your input matters!

The survey takes about 5 minutes and will help guide North Kawartha Council’s decisions on future EV infrastructure, partnerships, and funding opportunities.
