Wasaga Beach
After first approving it, they reversed the decision 3 days ago:

It sounds like the local nudist group will do it anyway though. Here's a portion of the newer article:
While councils change of heart did nothing
to dissuade John Cropper, the founder of the naturist group Wasagabares,
from believing local naturists will be able to continue to sunbathe au
naturale on an informal basis, the local park superintendent said the
province is not prepared to accept the use officially or not on park
property.
The enjoyment and comfort of all visitors
to Ontarios provincial parks is important to Ontario Parks (and the)
Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry. Ontario Parks is not
considering a change to our current policy of not permitting clothing
optional areas in any provincial park, including Wasaga Beach Provincial
Park, John Fisher told Simcoe.com. There has not been any discussion
about either an informal or formal agreement with Wasagabares.
Cropper cited a report to Wasaga Beachs
committee of the whole by CAO George Vadeboncoeur that Ontario Parks is
not prepared to formally designate the area.
Cropper claimed that was a tacit
acknowledgement the activity would be accepted on an informal basis.
All this means is we dont have the backing
of council, Cropper told Simcoe.com the morning after council made its
final decision. It really doesnt change anything for Wasagabares we
just have to do it without the support of council.
(Fisher) has never said no in the past,
hes just never said yes, and the fact we have something in writing
(in Vadeboncoeurs report) really helps.
Hopefully the Wasaga Bares will continue their efforts to have a clothing optional area established.Perhaps the participation and support of the FCN will allow for a more substantial and hopefully successful outcome. A large, public, clean maintained clothing optional beach would be a boon to naturists.
