At this week’s regular meeting, Tantramar councillors heard from three groups working to protect and preserve the region’s land and waters.
Jennifer Dingman of the Fundy Biosphere Region talked about the work happening in the UNESCO designated region, and also told councillors about her plans to install a sign in front of the Shep the Sandpiper sculpture in Dorchester village square.
Council also heard from representatives from the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society New Brunswick and the Canadian Wildlife Service, who are all are part of the Inner Bay of Fundy Conservation Planning Initiative, an umbrella group formed in 2020 to work on ways to protect and conserve Chignecto Bay, which has been proposed as part of Canada’s Marine Conservation Network.
