It was announced today that the Government of Ontario will lift it's ban on household clotheslines.




The province is determined to lift the ban on clotheslines in most Ontario communities in time for the summer sunshine, Energy Minister Gerry Phillips said Monday.

Outdoor clotheslines are currently banned under some municipal bylaws and contracts with home builders. But Phillips said Ontario is looking at allowing clotheslines for anyone who lives in a freehold detached, semi-detached or row house.

Funny part is I never knew they were banned in Ontario. Wonder what genius thought that one up.
