Aquatic Habitat Canada's Learning & Engagement Dialogue: Cumulative Effects under the Fisheries Act
This event is hosted by Aquatic Habitat Canada, a national network supporting aquatic habitat protection and restoration. This webinar series is based on the consultation topics of the Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s Fish and Fish Habitat Protection Program (FFHPP) development process.
For this first event, we will be hosting expert speakers from multiple sectors to present their involvement and perspectives on Cumulative Effects. The webinar will also include an open panel discussion a Q&A period. This outreach event is intended to be informative and educational, while allowing public engagement. We hope to host productive discussions for those planning to make submissions to the FFHPP consultation process.
These dialogues are completely independent of the DFO and are intended to facilitate engagement and sharing of perspectives with a multi-sectoral audience. AHC welcomes all individuals with an interest in aquatic habitat protection and restoration.
