Last week, The Hill Times, Canada’s most influential political newspaper, published an op-ed (see page 13) by NMMA Canada President Sara Anghel, which touched on Canada’s need for solid recycling solutions for boats and the industry’s breadth nationwide. Here’s an excerpt:

 

“Although the vast majority of boat owners care about the environment and are responsible owners, their options to dispose of their vessels are limited. A strong and enforceable licensing program providing accurate data on ownership and registration is a good start in addressing the issue.

 

“As Canada’s leading association representing the recreational boating industry… we are committed to a healthy environment and want our waterways clean and free for Canadians to enjoy. The federal government is working to find a solution to abandoned and wrecked vessels. We are happy to see this; it’s long overdue.”
