Santa Won't Be Counting on Ontario

TORONTO, Dec. 14, 2015 /CNW/ - In its third annual review of government action to conserve Canada's boreal woodland caribou, the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) finds there has been spotty progress – with too few jurisdictions showing significant leadership in protecting the species that long graced our 25-cent piece. Ontario is one of the jurisdictions CPAWS identifies as lagging in terms of action on the ground.

"To draw attention to the ever increasing footprint industry has on caribou habitat and the Boreal Forest CPAWS Wildlands League is releasing a new video today showing impacts from mineral exploration in the Ring of Fire. While alarm bells are only starting to be rung about the consequences of industrial activities in the Far North, further south the situation is grimmer as at least 3 caribou populations are suffering a long-term decline. These are populations with long history of forestry, road building & other development."
