Science & Policy Converge at Forum
When science and policy begin to converge, we’re on the right track. In addition to research studies, this year’s science Forum highlighted policy efforts underway to put a binational plan in place for the Lake of the Woods basin, with presentations from Global Affairs Canada and the Rt. Honourable Robert Nault, Member of Parliament for Kenora, and a video address by U.S. Senator Al Franken.
