Join the Georgian Bay Land Trust on March 19th as we welcome one of the leading voices in Canadian conservation to LANDMARK Speaker Series.
Janet Sumner is the Executive Director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society’s Wildlands League, and co-chair of the National Advisory Panel tasked with helping Canada meet its target to protect 17% of lands and inland waters by 2020. She will provide an insider’s perspective on conservation in Canada: where we stand, where we’re headed, and what challenges we need to meet head on.
The Georgian Bay Land Trust will also have an exciting announcement to make about a significant new conservation project on Georgian Bay that will bring us a step closer to meeting these targets.
