Changes To Navigable Waterways Protection Action That Will Impact Fishing


Recommended Posts

As many of you may know, the Canadian Senate is considering legislation regarding changes to the Navigable Waterways Protection Act.

The Government has attached the provisions to weaken the Navigable Waterways Protection Act (NWPA) in C-10, the Budget bill and the economic stimulus package. Its a good time to investigate the proposed changes and make your voice heard if you wish....
