Did Canada and the United States consult stakeholders to obtain their feedback throughout the study?
Public meetings were held in 2004 and 2005 to provide interested parties throughout the Great Lakes St. Lawrence region with the opportunity to share their views and comments on the study. A diverse group of stakeholders provided feedback, including the marine transport sector, First Nations/Tribes, industrial groups, environmental and coastal management entities, municipalities, universities and research institutes, recreational boaters and citizens. The results of these stakeholder meetings were documented and shared with all stakeholders throughout the region, and additional workshops were held during which the feedback received was further discussed and clarified, focusing on those issues that were within the scope of the study.
