The Town of Arnprior has retained Tate Research to undertake a Retail Market Demand Study to assess the future commercial needs for Arnprior. This study will provide the Town with a realistic plan to guide Arnprior’s economic landscape over the coming years.

Arnprior has grown into a bustling community and regional employment hub, with a population that has passed 10,000. Arnprior’s anticipated continued residential growth, together with Arnprior's proximity to Ottawa, shape both the opportunities and the challenges facing our local retail market.

Please share your thoughts and help shape the future of shopping in Arnprior by taking 5 minutes to complete the survey. The survey will run until August 17, 2026. Complete the survey here: www.surveymonkey.com/r/Arnprior_Survey

Our flags are at half mast as we mourn the senseless killings in Tumbler Ridge, BC. As an educator and as a parent, there are no words to describe the horror of this tragedy.

Prayers are with those affected, including those who will be forever scarred by these events.

The Town of Arnprior joins Canadians in mourning those lost in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia and extending our sincere sympathies to the families, friends and neighbours of those affected. Flags at Town Hall will be lowered to half-mast until February 17th as the nation mourns with the community.
