Representatives of GBA’s Water Committee met with MP Scott Aitchison at his constituency office in Huntsville to discuss the need for federal regulation of wastewater from the growing cruise ship industry on Georgian Bay.
For the past three years, Transport Canada has issued one-year interim orders on this topic, but a lasting set of regulations that’s tailored to the Bay’s unique ecology is needed. MP Aitchison agreed, and GBA looks forward to working with him and other Bay MPs to raise the profile of this topic in 2026.
