The Conference on Canadian Wetlands Stewardship: Setting a Course, Together, was held February 3-5, 2003 in Ottawa, Ontario. Hosted by the Federal Wetlands Forum and the North American Wetlands Conservation Council (Canada), the event resulted in many excellent recommendations. These are the result of working group discussions on key issues, barriers and opportunities under the six conference themes – (a) Wetlands in Working Landscapes: An Integrated Approach; (b) Wetlands, Clean Water and Healthy Watersheds; (c) Canada’s Wetland Industry; (d) Innovation and Wetland Technologies; (e) Wetland Inventory and Monitoring; and (f) Wetland Education. .
