Ontario Invasive Species Act
Nov 28, 2014
Ontario has re-introduced the Invasive Species Act, which is intended to protect Ontario from invasive plants and animals through prevention, early detection, rapid response and eradication.
Forest pests like Emerald Ash Borer and Asian Long Horned Beetle, aquatic species including Asian carp, and plants like water soldier have the real potential to upset Ontario's natural biodiversity and can be an economic nightmare.
Learn about invasive species, the EDDMapS tracking program, and the new Invasive Species Act, on the FOCA website.
