L'océan est plus bruyant que jamais. Le bruit des navires empêche les baleines de survivre. Les AMP réduisent le volume sonore en créant des espaces calmes où la vie marine & les communautés côtières peuvent prospérer. Protégeons ce qui nous fait vivre. https://snapcanada.org/cotes-et-ocean/

The ocean is louder than ever. Ship noise is drowning out whales’ ability to survive. MPAs turn down the volume, creating quiet zones where marine life and coastal communities can thrive again. It’s time to protect what sustains us. 👉 https://cpaws.org/coasts-ocean/

Les aires marines protégées ne protègent pas seulement la faune et la flore, elles protègent également les personnes et les lieux qui dépendent quotidiennement de l'océan. 🌊🌾

Le Canada possède le plus long littoral au monde, mais seulement 15,5 % de celui-ci est protégé. Les aires marines protégées préservent la faune, les communautés côtières et l'avenir de nos océans et familles. Il est temps de protéger ce qui nous fait vivre. 🌊 https://snapcanada.org/cotes-et-ocean/

A new report from the Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development (Office of the Auditor General) shows we have the tools, knowledge, and public support to protect nature. What’s missing is political will and stable, long-term investment👉Read our statement: cpaws.org/nature-bench...

In April, PM Carney declared we are in a "time of crisis" needing "bold new approaches to protect Canada’s natural heritage and defend it for future generations." Instead, Budget 2025 leaves nature out completely. Read our statement: cpaws.org/nature-bench...

Canada's new budget is out—it's a swing and a miss. In a year when generational investment was expected, Budget 2025 is a stunning letdown that fails to mention nature at all. Catch our Statement: cpaws.org/nature-bench...

'According to an article on the Wildlife Conservation Society Canada (WCSC) website, the lowlands “are often cited as the second-largest peatland complex in the world,” and absorb “the equivalent of around 1.6 billion tonnes of CO2” each year.'
The money will go towards 'community infrastructure and supports,” said the province, adding that the money is “a critical step in the development and construction of the proposed all-season Webequie Supply Road to the Ring of Fire | @mblackburn21.bsky.social

Dear Prime Minister…Without natural areas in our country and oceans, we risk unbalancing the planet's natural ability to keep us alive. We are moving towards a tipping point where natural systems will collapse in a chain reaction… (See the full text at cpaws.org/champions/da... )

This Halloween, we’re not losing sleep only over ghosts and ghouls👻Our nightmares are about what’s haunting Canada’s nature: a lack of nature funding, bills that axe protections, deregulation, etc. Support strong environmental laws and demand climate action that won’t vanish overnight.

Cet Halloween, ce ne sont pas seulement les fantômes et les monstres qui nous empêchent de dormir👻Nos cauchemars sont ce qui hante la nature canadienne. Soutenez des lois environnementales strictes et exigez des mesures climatiques qui ne disparaîtront pas du jour au lendemain.
