Canada-Ontario Agreement on Great Lakes: innovation and communities

Priority - promoting innovation and engaging communities

This priority focuses on creating opportunities for communities to benefit from innovations in environmentally sustainable economic activities and to become involved in the restoration, protection and conservation of the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes provide numerous benefits to the social and economic well-being of the people who live along their shores and in the watersheds. Four annexes address ways to increase and sustain these benefits: promoting innovation, engaging communities, engaging First Nations and engaging Métis.
