MbEN joins a list of organizations calling for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to follow the new legal requirement to consider cumulative effects

MbEN joins a list of organizations calling for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to follow the new legal requirement to consider cumulative effects when making policies and regulations, to prevent the degradation of fish habitat in Canada.

The undersigned organizations are greatly concerned about the failure of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to consider long-term cumulative effects when creating policies and regulations. This is a failure to adhere to legal requirements to properly manage cumulative effects.
