Clarington's Plans for Queen's Platinum Jubilee Celebrations
The Municipality of Clarington plans to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022, marking 70 years of service by Her Majesty the Queen. During the General Government Committee meeting on April 11, 2022, it was resolved that an official letter from the Mayor’s Office would be sent to the Queen, extending congratulations from the Council and the community. The resolution was moved by Councillor Zwart and seconded by Councillor Hooper. Additionally, it was noted that the Canadian Government has a series of events planned to mark the occasion, which will include year-long celebrations culminating in a four-day extended weekend in June in the UK. Specific local events were not detailed in the meeting minutes.
