Community Advisor - Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm, Vancouver

"I am very fortunate to work with so many dedicated and passionate people in a variety of areas ranging from advocacy, education and outreach through to salmon enhancement and restoration work.

There is a lot of interest in new projects but also an underlying commitment to making sure existing projects are functioning as intended. Thanks so much to all community members and staff who contribute their time and energy to make a difference."
