We started the procedure of opening the pool on Monday. I think it's the earliest ever! In spite of the cold water, you can see the green colour of the water from standing under the cover all winter.
As soon as the filter started to work, we added 5 gallons of liquid chlorine to the mix.
It started to brighten up later in the day.
By Thursday it was looking pretty good.
By Friday the water was starting to look more inviting, although it's only 10 C. (50 F) A little more vacuuming and running the filter continuously has done the trick.

I've been shopping around to get a price on a replacement pool heater. Our old one from the mid 90's is unserviceable and parts are no longer available. Wendy and Erin expressed interest in a new heater since we have not been using the pool much in recent years because the water is always too cold.
