La communauté des Grands Lacs

The Lake Partner Program is a citizen-science based water quality monitoring program that is run by the Ministry of Environment, Conservation, and Parks and the Federation of Ontario Cottagers’ Associations.
Every year the program sends out 100’s of free sampling kits to volunteers across Ontario.

We empower communities to protect local waterways with continuous, real-time monitoring technology. By providing accessible tools and actionable insights, we enable volunteers to track water quality, understand environmental impacts, and drive data-informed actions to preserve natural resources.

Birds Canada’s Marsh Monitoring Program is a bi-national, long-term monitoring program that coordinates the skills and dedication of hundreds of volunteer surveyors throughout the marshes of Canada and the Great Lakes States to track the long-term trends of marsh-bird and amphibian populations.

Our Living Waters (OLW) drives collaboration as a nation-wide initiative uniting a network of 200+ water leaders across Canada who work toward the common theme of “all waters in Canada in good health by 2030.”
