A leak in the Buffalo Pound pool that led to its closure last summer will remain closed, as officials determined that the 46-year-old pool is in unrepairable condition.
The province said that continuing to operate the pool is not possible without compromising the safety of users and the decision has been made to not operate the pool in 2019.
The Ministry of Park said they know that the pool is a key attraction for visitors at Buffalo Pound, and it has identified replacing the pool as a priority.
