I have no doubt that the skating season will begin for January 30th or earlier. The ice is thick enough now (>25cm) to support the weight of any maintenance trucks etc., but they like to be extra careful and wait for >30cm to open up the canal officially to the public. With 5 straight days of bitter cold (not Winnipeg cold) weather coming up things should be just fine.

P.S. I'm willing to race anyone at any skating distance and for any reason you can come up with .
