June 8 is World Oceans Day
June 8, 2022
Our government is taking ambitious action to continue protecting our oceans and coasts. Since we were elected in 2015, Canada has gone from protecting less than 1% of our marine coastal areas to over 14% today. We’re also taking action to ban harmful single-use plastics and eliminate plastic waste by 2030, and in Budget 2022, we made the largest investment ever in protecting our oceans by expanding the now $3.5 billion Oceans Protection Plan.
