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.

CAISN and the RBCM

On Wednesday, April 28th CAISN, in partnership with the Royal BC Museum, opened the Invaders From The Deep exhibit to a packed house eager to learn about CAISN and its work. 

Produced in partnership with the Ministry of the Environment, the interactive exhibit provides museum visitors with an experience that leaves them informed and, more importantly, aware of AIS and the considerable threat they pose to our coastal and inland aquatic ecosystems.

If you would like more information about our exhibit and its availability, contact CAISN Communications at 519-253-3000 Ext. 3755
