Pender Harbour Wildlife Presentation: River in Peril

A presentation with Jeremy Venditti, Professor of Environment Science at Simon Fraser. The mighty Fraser River, a powerful and free-flowing lifeline for British Columbia’s culture and economy, faces a hidden crisis as dredging and climate change create a critical sediment deficit in its delta. This imbalance threatens the region’s infrastructure and ecological integrity, highlighting the urgent need for a dedicated Fraser River Observatory to monitor the river’s health.
