Hamilton will offer free admission to the Mum Show at Gage Park for a second straight year.
Ward 6 Coun. Tom Jackson and Ward 3 Coun. Nrinder Nann brought the motion before the public works committee on Monday, both citing the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Our community has overwhelmingly been supportive of this great show at this time of year,” says Jackson, “when I think we all need a little peaceful serenity.”
“Being able to access the Mum Show,” adds Nann, “is a little piece of normalcy, inside over a year and a half of uncertainty and many, many adjustments and changes.”
