Marine Protected Areas, oil tanker ban, marine protection in BC
Summary
Life on BC’s north coast revolves around the marine environment. Culture, economy, stewardship - the ocean plays a pivotal role in the region’s web of community, driving a robust marine-based economy. The federal government can protect this marine environment through two major decisions:
- Ban oil tanker traffic on BC's North Coast
- Implement a network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) on BC's North Coast
This infographic outlines the need for these two policy decisions as essential pieces of protection for BC's rich natural resoures.
