June 19, 2026: The hydrolift chair in the main pool at the Canada Games Aquatic Centre is out of service. We anticipate the hydrochair will be out of service for several weeks while we wait for parts to arrive.

👉 For any residents who need this equipment to swim, a hydrolift chair is available at Westsyde and Brock pools.

We will work to repair this equipment as soon as possible and apologize for the inconvenience.
