Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan plays a critical role in improving our marine safety system so that Canadians can be confident marine shipping is happening without increased harm to the environment. Improvements to our marine safety system—through the Oceans Protection Plan—are the result of valuable collaboration with Indigenous Peoples, coastal communities, the marine industry, environmental organizations, and academia. Each are committed to protecting Canada’s greatest resource—our coasts and waterways—for future generations. Since the Oceans Protection Plan started, over 50 initiatives are being delivered to strengthen marine safety, advance scientific research, and protect coastal ecosystems from coast-to-coast-to-coast. Check out the results so far in our Report to Canadians (External link)(External link).

As we look towards renewing the Oceans Protection Plan, we will continue working collaboratively to ensure Canada’s oceans are protected for generations to come.
