Canada Post Strike
Canada Post workers began strike action on November 15, 2024, leading to delays in service.
As a result, residents may experience significant delays in receiving their water bill in the mail. Please note that the payment due date remains the same, regardless of if the bill is received in the mail.
Sign up for e-billing here to ensure you receive water (and tax) bills through email, and review payment options here. The City of Owen Sound is requesting that residents DO NOT send payment through the mail during the postal strike.
For water bill inquiries, please call 519-376-1440 ext.1900 or email waterbilling@owensound.ca
