Marine Species Need Your Voice!
Despite significant efforts by the Government of Canada to reduce the injury and death of whales due to collisions with commercial ships and other vessels, whales continue to be killed in Canadian waters. Speed restrictions and shipping lanes established in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, for example, have helped, but are not enough.
Canada needs to commit to further actions on all three coasts to reduce incidental mortality of whales due to shipping. This is why the Canadian Wildlife Federation has developed the Marine Action Plan.
