March 3, 2022 – The Canadian Marine Shipping Risk Forum hosted the Salish Sea Transboundary Working Group (SSTWG) to share work, ideas, concerns, questions and issues about marine shipping risk in the Salish Sea region.
The Working Group’s first session welcomed dozens of participants from governments, academia, Indigenous groups, and non-governmental organizations, in Canada and the U.S., who share an interest for marine shipping activities – and their associated risks – taking place in the transboundary waters of the Salish Sea.
