ID plan won’t cripple border flow: ambassador

From Niagara This Week:

If Canada and the United States could come up with one inexpensive, easy-to-get border pass they could both agree on, it would enhance rather than hurt trade and travel between the two countries, says the United States ambassador to Canada.

In an address to the Niagara Falls Chamber of Commerce at the organization’s 2006 Outstanding Business Achievement Awards Tuesday night, David Wilkins said he was confident the two countries will be able to come up with an identification system that won’t create chaos at the border crossings.

“We are open again… and better than ever!”

It looks like the Niagara Falls Aviary is open again, having been open for the last week or so:

On December 18th, the Aviary had a water show that rivaled the Falls themselves, due to a large 10-inch water main break located inside our building. The birdies are all okay but we have been closed to the public getting fixed up. During this time we’ve also added a few new coats of paint, some new décor and totally renovated our Small Aviary exhibit. So please come back and see all the great new things happening at the Niagara Falls Aviary!

We will reopen to the public FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH, 2006.
Our off-season hours of operation are 7 days a week 10am-*5pm (*last admission sold one hour prior to closing).

We look forward to seeing you in the Rainforest!!
