Ranked the number one activity of choice among Canadians, walking is a prescription for improved health and wellness. Walk briskly for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, and minimize your risk for cardiovascular disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes and some types of cancer. Additional benefits include weight management, blood pressure control and boosting good cholesterol (HDLs). Other benefits of walking: • Releases the body’s tension and stress. • Refreshes the mind and body, especially when walking outdoors. • Allows you to connect with your community. • Offers an excellent way to socialize with family and/or friends. • Increases “eyes on the street”, enhancing community safety. Walking with your Dog Edmonton has over 40 locations where you can enjoy your walk while your dog is off-leash. Please remember that all sites where dogs are permitted to be off-leash are multi-use areas used by all. Your dog must be leashed when not in a designated off-leash area. The dog icons show on this map are placed in the approximate location of each off-leash area, but do not show the precise boundaries. For more information, including details on off-leash boundaries, check the Parks for Paws Brochure or go to edmonton.ca (keyword “off-leash”) There are 1,440 minutes in a day, schedule 30 of them for walking!

In the early 1900’s, Jasper Place was on the west boundary (149 street) of the City of Edmonton. It was home to a few hundred people many who homesteaded. After the Second World War, Edmonton’s growing population spilled into the hamlet of Jasper Place and pushed the population up to 8900 people.

Stony Plain Road
The original town of Jasper Place included the four communities of Canora, Britannia/ Youngstown, Glenwood and West Jasper Place.
In the early 1900’s, Jasper Place was on the west boundary (149 street) of the City of Edmonton. It was home to a few hundred people many who homesteaded. After the Second World War, Edmonton’s growing population spilled into the hamlet of Jasper Place and pushed the population up to 8900 people. In 1964 Jasper Place amalgamated with the City of Edmonton. Stony Plain Road is still the main street that connects the downtown to the west end.
Britannia Youngstown Community was founded in 1959. It was founded when the new residential areas of the City were being developed. The large numbers of baby boomers and their families were interested in recreational programs and formed a community league.
Canora Community is named after the old Canadian Northern Railway. It is one of the oldest community leagues (1949) in Jasper Place and was a member of the Jasper Place Association of Community leagues until the town was amalgamated to Edmonton in 1964.
