June is 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 in Canada, an opportunity to learn about the unique cultures, traditions and experiences of First Nations, Inuit and Métis, who have lived on this land since time immemorial and whose presence continues to shape Canada today.

It is also a moment for reflection and to recognize the ongoing impacts of colonization, reflecting on how we can all contribute to reconciliation.

Today we celebrate the incredible diversity of life that sustains our planet and our watersheds—and the urgent responsibility we share to protect and conserve it. 🌳🌊

Invasive species are one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity. This International Day for Biological Diversity, the Invasive Species Centre is encouraging Canadians to take action to help prevent their spread.

You can help protect biodiversity by:

- Choosing native plants for your garden. Some popular garden plants are actually invasive and can spread into natural areas and outcompete native species.
- Never releasing pets or plants. Invasive species can be introduced into natural ecosystems intentionally or accidentally. To prevent this, research pets you may want to bring into your home to ensure you can properly care for them throughout their lifespan.
- Reporting invasive species sightings to [EDDMapS.org](http://eddmaps.org/) or the Invading Species Hotline at 1-800-563-7711 (Ontario). Early detection helps support rapid response and management efforts.
- Cleaning, draining, and drying your watercraft before entering or leaving a waterbody. Invasive species can hitchhike on trailers, motors, and equipment or survive in standing water such as bait buckets, live wells, and bilges.
- Buying and burning firewood locally. Moving firewood can spread invasive insects and diseases to new areas, even over short distances.
