A question on a lot of people’s minds in Burgeo is a simple one: "Am I still going to be allowed to go to my cabin?"

Burgeo’s small businesses are defined by resilience and hard work. But there is one thing even the hardest working entrepreneur cannot overcome: the fog of uncertainty.

If you strip away the noise, an NMCA (national marine conservation area) is an economic signal.

If you live or work on the Southwest Coast, your routine is a compass: cabins on weekends, a boat in the water when weather allows, a season that rises and falls with the fish.

For too long, the idea of a National Marine Conservation Area (NMCA) has been surrounded by whispers and worries.

A healthy coast means happy visitors and steady local income. We can protect our natural beauty and grow our economy at the same time.

New information on the proposed NMCA.
