Public Works Attendant Dingwall PW-Attendant-Dingwall-SeasonalMarch-1-2021DownloadA Message from the Warden
On behalf of myself and Victoria County councillors, I would like to thank each and everyone of you. The COVID-19 global pandemic has clearly changed the way we live our lives. Council commends Victoria County medical professionals, our doctors and nurses; our front-line grocery store workers and pharmacies staff, our janitorial and cleaning crews and others deemed essential by the province. These people are putting themselves at risk so that we can live in health. Finally, thanks to our own municipal staff– from on-site Public Works staff and garbage collections crews to water utility operators and administration personnel, all are working hard to keep the municipality running in these extraordinary circumstances. Sincerely, Warden Bruce Morrison & Victoria County Councillors

Your Gateway to Adventure!
Winter Activity
Looking to get out and experience winter in Victoria County? Well, we can help make your adventures happen! Check out the Baddeck and Ingonish Library’s Gear Loan Programs. Members are welcome to borrow: Nordic walking poles, ice cleats, snow shoes, and cross-country skis. Also, make sure to inquire about current programming that might give you some ideas for getting out and getting active! If transportation is an issue, we have a Victoria County transit system. You must call 24 hours in advance, but for $5.00 the transit bus will take you anywhere in the county. Victoria County Active Living Department can also assist you in accessing up to date information on local guided hikes, events and programming.
Victoria County Council is now on-line for you to watch and participate. Each Victoria County Council Session is live streamed on our Facebook Page. You can find the schedule of Council meetings here, and tune in to Facebook on the day of Council to watch the proceedings live. With Covid -19 changing the way things are done, Victoria County Council has adapted to continue to meet and discuss the needs and concerns of the county residents. Depending on provincial gathering regulations, these meetings will either be held:
1) In person at council chambers with distancing and limited public seating
or
2) On-line meeting held via the Zoom meeting platform.
Both versions of Council Meetings will be live-streamed for public inclusion. Should you wish to find out more about Council Meetings and how you can connect with or participate in council sessions, please contact our Communications Officer, Jocelyn Bethune.
