Lake Nipissing Nation-to-Nation Fishery Management Challenges and Changes

In the summer of 2021 Blue Fish Canada submitted input on proposed changes to the Lake Nipissing recreational fishing regulations, and in January 2022 the new regs were released. Kim Tremblay is the Lake Nipissing Management Biologist for the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry, and our guest on The Blue Fish Radio Show where we discuss the new fishing regs, and the nation-to-nation fisheries collaboration and understanding between the Government of Ontario and Nipissing First Nation. Listen and learn what it takes to juggle competing interests when developing and updating the Lake Nipissing Management Plan. This podcast follows the episode featuring Chief Scott McLeod from Nipissing First Nation.
