Congratulations Dr. Robichaud, an amazing scientist and mentor!!! 🤩🥳 So excited for you @cdrobich!
Huge Congratulations to @cdrobich for crushing her PhD thesis defense @UWaterloo @WaterlooSci today. Dr. Robichaud’s research on the effects of #Phragmites invasion and control covered wetland soils, plants and aquatic inverts (birds as a bonus!), leading an examiner to say...
Brook trout! One of my favourite freshwater fish 🐟 Recently completed this watercolour painting for @scisally. Getting back into art and starting commissions has been a great pandemic pastime!
Excited to write a letter to my MPP and Ontario ministers to let them know I’m against the Ford agenda to fast track development and gut environmental protections. Remove Schedule 6 from #Bill229!
🗣️Conservation Authorities are under fire!🗣️
The Government of Ontario plans to severely curtail their role using Budget Bill 229. Please sign and share our #ActionAlert to urge the Government to withdraw these proposed changes. #onpoli

I passed! It’s been such a joy to work on this project with my amazing supervisors Mark Servos & @girls_can, & my fantastic committee members Heidi Swanson & Simon Courtenay! So grateful to have been part of the @WaterlooBio & @Lake_Futures community for my MSc 🎉🐟🎉 Thank you!!
Big congrats to @hillary_qa who passed her MSc thesis defense today. She used telemetry methods & stable isotopes to examine the movement ecology of #GrandRiver #walleye, who are separated from their historic spawning ground by a dam. @WaterlooBio @WaterlooSci @GWFutures #Proud

@Hillary_qa studies how dams impact fish movement and reproduction in the lower Grand River.
She hopes her work will "contribute to achieving goals outlined by Lake Erie #fisheries and habitat managers”
