About Living Oceans

Living Oceans staff

Living Oceans is proud of our track record of collaborative solutions that deliver results. We've been a leader in the effort to protect Canada's Pacific coast since we formed in 1998. We started in Sointula, a small fishing village on the Central Coast of British Columbia, yet our influence is national.
