The Canadian Aquatic Invasive Species Network is a national league of specialists created to examine and identify existing invasions of non-native species in our coastal waters and inland lakes, rivers and streams. Our goal is to prevent new species from harming Canada's aquatic ecosystem.This blog is published and updated to bring awareness to this often overlooked issue. It is our hope that you will take what you learn here and spread the news about this hidden threat.
