@WWFCanada: “The loss of species globally is not something that’s simply occurring in the far-flung reaches of the Earth. It’s happening here, at home in Canada.” – @JDMSnider, WWF-Canada's VP of science, knowledge and innovation https://t.co/Dpmo1g3SZD

@OwenWGreen Sending you our support during this devastating time.

At our recent AGM we thanked outgoing president Peter Toner with this gift. Peter supported staff, helped develop a 10-year strategic plan, stood against the Sisson Mine, and lots more. The Nashwaak has benefitted immensely from his passion and dedication. Thank you, Peter! https://t.co/Xpj9Yldioa
