However, as Candice O'Connell mentions on Metafilter website

http://ask.metafilter.com/100371/Where-can-my-dog-go-swimming-in-Ottawa

"DO NOT allow your dog to swim at Bruce Pit or the Arboretum. Both areas come under the National Capital Commission's Animal Regulations and a violation will result in a hefty fine. Frankly, you would not want to allow your dog to swim in either of these locations because of high contamination and bacteria."

Are there any other favourite safe and 'legal' swimming spots in the area that we can add to our list?
