Protecting BC’s Coast: Infographic on tanker ban and network of marine protected areas

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.
