Here is some great news for boat owners in the region.
Parks Canada has announced that it plans to allow watercraft on Clear Lake this year, under what it calls a "one boat, one lake" aquatic invasive species prevention program.
Following consultations with the province, Indigenous advisors, and leading scientific and international experts, Parks Canada determined that eradicating Zebra Mussels completely from Clear Lake would not be feasible.
The program is similar to one used in 2023, but the public will be given an opportunity to provide input on how it will be applied this year.
Those gatherings are set for this Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 near the skating rink behind the Visitors Centre in Wasagaming.
