Waterloo Region officially enters bid for 2021 Canada Games

Today, the paperwork has been officially submitted. Waterloo Region has entered a bid for the 2021 Canada Games.

Three other communities will compete with Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge for the chance to host the games.

Over the next 28 days, a selection committee will evaluate which bid is the top pick.

Our region is competing with Ottawa, Niagara, and Sudbury.

Tim Jackson is a member of the committee and tells 570 News the time is now to show support. “If we don’t rally around this right now, we won’t be getting the games. We’re asking our community to go to our website to show you want the games here in 2021.”

Jackson adds the region is a perfect fit and with a successful bid, over 20 million dollars in funding would come our way to host the games.
