Our priority
To protect Clearwater Bay from a new forest management plan that intends to clearcut the forests.

These forests are close to the shoreline of Clearwater Bay, bordering residential property and threatening its fragile ecosystem. The Ministry's Forest Management Plan (FMP) is in direct violation of the very intent of a Restricted Area Order that has been enforced for 30 years.

Why It Matters

Protecting Clearwater Bay from increased levels of nutrients is crucial to preserving a healthy ecosystem in the Water.

The Water
Deep oxygen-rich waters and clear shorelines that are natural habitat for many forms of aquatic life and in particular a breeding ground for lake trout
The Land
Beautiful cottage country region where many Ontarians and Manitobans live and play. An oasis for swimming, fishing, boating, hiking and enjoying the natural beauty
The People
A community of cottage goers and visitors that understand the need to protect the water by controlling development with the Restricted Area Order
