After participating in the recent 2019 Union of BC Municipalities annual convention, it was clear that while many of these municipal leaders deal mainly with the “land-based” concerns of citizens, marine shipping and our coastal waterways have an equally important impact on all of their communities.
Clear Seas supports the federal government’s $1.5 billion Oceans Protection Plan to increase marine safety systems and strengthen the Canadian Coast Guard.
The CCA is pleased to announce that it has received a new question for assessment on the Social and Economic Value of Commercial Marine Shipping in Canada.
Clear Seas engaged the Council of Canadian Academies to address the social and economic value of commercial marine shipping to Canada.
Using coastal and inland waterways to move cargo over short distances can cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and could also ease congestion on roads and railways.
