Marine protection in Canada

How do marine protected areas help protect the ocean? Canada has a big goal: to protect 30% of our ocean waters by 2030! Marine Protected Areas, or MPAs, are a key part of this plan. In this collection, we'll dive into the underwater wonders of Canada's MPAs! These underwater "national parks" hold wonders like deep-sea vents in BC and canyons in Nova Scotia. Discover how scientists use cool tech like underwater cameras and microphones to study coral, whales, and more. See how provinces, Indigenous Peoples, industry, and researchers are teaming up to reach the 30 by 30 goal—and how you can be part of the solution too!
