The Ontario Invasive Species Strategic Plan

Ontario has developed a plan to combat invasive species in order to protect the province's environment and its economy.


The Ontario Invasive Species Strategic Plan outlines Ontario's approach to the prevention, early detection, and rapid response to new invasive species like zebra mussels and the emerald ash borer.

Minister of Natural Resources, Michael Gravelle says "This plan paves the way for important partners like the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters and the Invasive Species Centre to fight this threat together."
