Grateful to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Essex County Field Naturalists Club @ECFNC and listen to a great presentation by Canada's foremost wilderness explorer and author Adam Shoalts. A wonderful celebration of Canada's natural beauty and environmental conservation.

MP @TerryDuguid and I were thrilled to meet with the @GLIERUWINDSOR Healthy Headwaters Lab team — discussing key ongoing initiatives to protect our Great Lakes. Our $76 million Great Lakes protection investment will support over 50 partner-led projects! Keep up the great work.

We must do everything possible to protect our Great Lakes — and our Liberal government is stepping up. Proud to join MP @TerryDuguid right here in #WindsorEssex to announce $76 million in federal dollars for 50 partner-led projects to help keep our Great Lakes clean 🌊

At Nature on the Hill, we joined @naturecanada to advocate for a national biodiversity strategy—and we got it! As #COP16 approaches, we must work for even stronger legislation to protect nature for the future: https://t.co/aVedSAYVo0 @SenRosaGalvez @Irek_K @BrianMasseMP @beynate

Thrilled to see completion of the pedestrian crosswalk at Ojibway Nature Centre between Matchett & Titcombe Rd! Important for pedestrian safety & hopefully indirectly wildlife. Thanks @OjibwayPrairie, @CityWindsorON Transportation, @WPCWild911 Ojibway Team & Councillor Francis.

Read my op-ed written with @kl_walters & @AkaashMaharaj Canada can show leadership at #COP16 on biodiversity in Colombia this fall. The recently tabled Nature Accountability Act is a good start to achieve our nature and biodiversity protection goals. https://t.co/G3W7BmiF7K

Great to see anticipation for the crosswalk and traffic calming efforts near @OjibwayPrairie. This will make the area safer for pedestrians and hopefully provide some help with reducing road mortality for wildlife as well. @FOOPOjibway @WPCWild911 @CityWindsorON @UWCities

Looking forward to this. Between recent traffic calming measures, progression of Matchett multi-use trail, crosswalk and other projects there is a real opportunity to reimagine this stretch to make it more pedestrian and wildlife friendly. @FOOPOjibway @OjibwayPrairie @UWCities
