Defending the public’s right to a healthy Bay of Fundy.
The Fundy Baykeeper’s top priority is enforcing laws and educating citizens.
The Fundy Baykeeper works for the Conservation Council to defend the public’s right to a healthy Bay of Fundy. This right is inherent in laws written to protect the marine environment and the species that inhabit it. The Fundy Baykeeper’s top priority is to make sure environmental laws are enforced.
The Fundy Baykeeper knows the laws that are meant to protect the Bay of Fundy and the enforcement authorities responsible for them. When violations are uncovered, the Baykeeper directly engages those authorities to make sure the laws actually work for the public and the bay. If authorities fail to act, the Baykeeper may take legal action to ensure the laws passed by our legislature and parliament are upheld.
The Fundy Baykeeper is a member of the Waterkeeper® Alliance. The Alliance is an umbrella of over 150 ‘waterkeeper’ programs. Known as riverkeepers, coastkeepers, sound-keepers, lakekeepers and baykeepers, these grassroots organizations are fighting for healthy water ecosystems worldwide.
