Be Coyote Smart

Spring has arrived, with summer soon on its way. Everyone is getting active and walking the trails, while soaking up some vitamin D. One thing you have to keep in mind though is wild coyotes. They are generally afraid of humans, but with growing urbanization we are slowly desensitizing them to ourselves.

Here is a great article from Nova Scotia Natural Resources on how to be coyote smart!

Katimavik Cut

It is sad to hear but as part of the Federal Budget that took place on March 29th 2012, the Katimavik program has been officially cut. The program benefited youth across Canada, and gave them different opportunites to learn from volunteering and group living. Not only did the youth benefited, but the communities that were involved with Katimavik will also suffer a tremendous loss.

Get your voice heard!
Send a letter to your Prime Minister, and local MP about your concerns.
