We carry resources and unite concerned persons with the goal of limiting the damage that destructive introduced species cause. Indigenous organizations, governments, businesses, other organizations, and individuals are all represented. CCIS works with partners like Ducks Unlimited Canada and its provincial chapters to deliver tools and resources to encourage people in Canada and Turtle Island to stop the spread of destructive introduced species. These are species that spread without competition and have negative effects on ecosystems, which compound into negative effects on human communities. |
