Fall Boating – It Takes A Little Bit More Care

The Canadian Safe Boating Council (CSBC) and the Ontario Conservation Officer Association (OCOA) want to remind all boaters enjoying the fall season on the water to follow a few helpful tips to ensure that their excursions are both safe and enjoyable.

Eileen Maynard - Guardian of the Bay

"Being a Guardian of the Bay is important to me because Georgian Bay is vital to us and the animals around us. Being a Guardian of the Bay is a responsibility that we all have for keeping it healthy for the next 5 generations."
