New Brunswick ‘lagging behind’ protecting important marine areas | CBC News
“There’s room for improvement, that’s for sure, off the coast of New Brunswick,” Clowater said.
Clowater
said she hopes to challenge provincial leadership to work with the
federal government more and engage in discussions on how to
protect marine areas.
What more needs to be done?
Clowater
said the province needs to take action to establish marine-protected
areas in the Bay of Fundy, Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Northumberland
Strait.
Another area of note is the Shediac Valley, 1,500 square
kilometres of water in the Gulf of St. Lawrence off the coast of the
Acadian Peninsula.
