There is a real danger that changes to provincial
wetland policy now under consideration will open
up development on wetland areas currently
protected out of concern for safeguarding the
habitats of threatened species of wildlife in Niagara
and other regions of the province.
Dr. John Bacher is a long-standing
conservationist within the Niagara
region as well as a member of the
Preservation of Natural Lands Society.
He is a regular contributor to
niagaraatlarge.com and a comrade to
the Niagara region.
