Greetings,

The Minister of Fisheries and Oceans will be posting several federal Species at Risk Act Recovery Strategies, Action Plans and Management Plans on the Species at Risk Public Registry in the coming days, including the proposed Action Plan for the Northern and Southern Resident Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) in Canada, and the proposed Partial Action Plan for Blue, Fin, Sei and North Pacific Right Whales (Balaenoptera musculus, B. physalus, B. borealis, and Eubalaena japonica) in Canadian Pacific Waters.

Comments you may have on these proposed recovery documents are requested within 60 days of each document being posted on the Species at Risk Public Registry. You may make your comments through the Public Consultation page of the Species at Risk Public Registry. I would also encourage you to subscribe to the Species at Risk Public Registry email newsletter so that you receive notifications of public consultations. 

Yours sincerely,

Martin Nantel
