I cleaned at Roxboro beach. Not a large amount of garbage collected but I groomed the east side of the shoreline. At about 8:50 AM I took a video of the city pumping a large amount of water into the river on the east side, but did not upload it.

I cleaned Whitehorse rapids/ Rapids du Cheval Blanc, the shoreline east of the official park.
With a metal rake I went over the sand and rock mixture in this bay area. To the trash, I only brought a glass bottle, fishing line from a fisher-fool and a fisher-fools black plastic holder, for his/her fishing rod.

I had cleaned this spot August 26, 2016 and to my surprise it has not returned to the worst state.

I went to Whitehorse rapids /Rapids du cheval blanc and cleaned the shoreline near the official park. One standard black garbage bag was filled. No photos because I forgot my camera. I found the usual garbage of used/discarded fishing line from fisher-fools and Tim Horton coffee containers and beer containers. I found four or more brand new fishing hooks on the shoreline that I put in a used beer can so no one gets stuck. Of NOTE: I recovered two intact glass beer bottles ( one large, one small) that were in the river , recovered BEFORE they broke on the rocks. Many Canadian geese are in the area now. I accidentally scared away a grand Heron when doing the cleaning on the western side. He/she was hunting for fish or frogs that are on the shoreline. Surprising to me , the river level height has increased during the past days that I was away.

I cleaned at Whitehorse rapid/Rapids du Cheval Blanc. There was a large amount of fishing line left on the shoreline , by fisher-fools. I believe the two city garbage containers in the park are full and need emptying.
