Remembering our friend Nick Reid ... Next week a delegation of us will attend the UN Water Conference in NY and confirm our commitment to indigenous populations in Canada. Our commitment follows some work started by Nick. We miss him and honour his legacy ..

2023 CGU Student Conference has started! Nice to be here in person. Thanks Canadian YHS for organizing.

Two TT Assistant Professor opportunities (1: Geography, 2: Environmental Geospatial Data Science) in the Department of Geography & Environmental Studies at #TorontoMetropolitanUniversity. More information > hr.cf.ryerson.ca/ams/faculty/ TMU Geography & Env CGU Canadian Geographers

In this CBC News piece I highlight we commonly "undersell this kind of project.” #Riverrestoration can bring a vast wealth ($) of benefits, for nature and people. #naturalassets cbc.ca/news/canada/ki…

If you are at #IAGLR23 and looking for a graduate or pdf position email me. We are looking for multiple students in water quality , wetlands, and climate change solutions

Migration Alert!! 400 million birds will be migrating tonight—a good time to turn off nonessential outdoor lighting and to treat reflective windows to keep birds safe. Learn more at birdcast.info/science-to-act… #LightsOut #LightsOutAlert

Canada's science & innovation talent pipeline is a massive filter, removing those without external financial support. How many potential Nobel laureates have we excluded? How many who may have cured cancer? Pay emerging scientists a living wage Chrystia Freeland. #SupportOurScience

The Landscape Ontario Horticultural Trades Association Lake Simcoe CA Salt Forum is kicking off. Urban Water TMU is thrilled to collaborate on this event.

Huge thx Minister of Infrastructure Kinga Surma for visiting our lab to hear about "flushable" products research & sustainable ice-making technologies w/Jet Ice & advocate for less garbage in sewers that clog municipal infrastructure & escape into #GreatLakes

Kudos to PhD students Bryant Serre and Wyatt Weatherson for leading a field course at Yellow Creek on water sampling and monitoring techniques. Students from biomedical science, botany, chemistry, and public health benefited from this excellent course!

Deeply disappointed to learn that funding has been cancelled for the wastewater surveillance program in Ontario. This has been critical information not only for COVID-19, but other infectious disease threats (Influenza, RSV, MPox, Polio & now H5N1) in Ontario.

I was saddened to see the obituary of Wayne Rouse in today's Hamilton Spectator. A prof at McMaster University's geography dept, his publications were 'required reading' when I was a new academic doing research on Canadian lakes, esp in the Arctic, & the effects of #climate change. #cdnsci #cdnenv

Wayne Rouse was a driving force on my committee during my MSc and PhD. He cared deeply about Canada’s north, climate change, and everyone he met. Much of his work was ‘pre internet’ and now overlooked. Looking back, Wayne was far ahead of the curve in every way. Remember him.

I'm so sad to hear that Wayne passed on Friday. Wayne was the kindest and most generous mentor. I was one of his last graduate students and his impact on my life was immense. I would not be where I am today without him. McMaster University circleoflifecbc.com/m/obituaries/W…
