As a visitor to Wasaga Beach…

As a visitor to Wasaga Beach, I have had a chance to observe our beautiful Piping Plovers and their babies. I am asking that the Ontario Government ensures that these birds and their nesting areas are conserved and protected by a science-based management plan and resources that:

Reduces threats to Piping Plover and their habitat year-round by restricting mechanical raking so that the habitat is not destroyed, prohibiting dune alteration, and protecting nests with fenced buffer zones and natural predator mitigations.
Commits funding to protect, conserve, and steward Piping Plovers, their nests, and their habitats.
Engages experts like Birds Canada at development and implementation phases.

Please don't let these nesting areas be destroyed.
