Great Lakes Trust Science, Art, and Advocacy for Our Great Lakes

24 years ago today, Lake Ontario Waterkeeper launched in Hamilton and Toronto. So much progress. So many impacts from this ambitious organization that inspired Swim Drink Fish and a national charity for swimmable drinkable fishable water for all.
