| OSHAWA Oshawa has something for everyone. The city is an academic centre
offering three universities, one college and several training colleges. For those who
enjoy the outdoors, Oshawa provides 2,100 acres of parkland and open spaces, including 135
parks, over 100 playgrounds and 25 kilometres of trails that wind through the city and
link to the Great Waterfront Trail. For those who have a taste for fresh, locally grown
produce, six famers markets dot the city.
Oshawa attracts high-profile events, hosts 45 annual community events and is home to
the Oshawa Generals Hockey Club. Five museums, two live theatres, a national art gallery
and a world-class symphony also enrich the city. Oshawa offers numerous public transit
options, including VIA Rail and GO Transit, direct access to Highway 401, a full-service
airport and deep-water port.
AJAX
Ajax is part of Durham Region, one of the
fastest growing areas of Ontario. Residents enjoy a full range of excellent municipal
services of city quality in a mid-sized town setting. We enjoy and strive to preserve a
rich natural heritage, including waterways such as Duffins and Carruthers Creek and, most
importantly, Lake Ontario. Ajax's 6 k.m. of waterfront remain largely undeveloped for the
enjoyment of everyone, with acres of parkland and natural areas.
