Indigenous Peoples and coastal communities have had traditional and cultural ties with Canada’s oceans and waterways for generations. The next phase of Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan will continue to build on opportunities for Indigenous Peoples and coastal communities to collaboratively protect, preserve, and restore our oceans and waterways. Today, the Minister of Transport, the Honourable Omar Alghabra announced an investment of $50 million to directly support Indigenous partnerships in the Oceans Protection Plan.
This funding will be open to Indigenous communities and organizations, and can be used to support capacity for their continued involvement in: - Discussing and building relationships that advance marine safety and environmental protection; and - Improving the marine transportation system and protection of the environment;
