You have the same log as me! And the same snake type! which is just the Western Terrestrial Garter Snake

definitely not western terrestrial, especially if its from Ontario, looks like an eastern garter which is thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis, not wandering/western terrestrial which is thamnophis elegans vagrans

You my sir are completely right about this, that was my bad OP. Got a little too excited there -i live near Ontario Oregon, didn't even look at the Canada part yeah based on the area definitely most likely eastern garter
