Citizens for Protecting Our Northern Waterways (CPONW) is coalition of local citizen and business volunteers committed to the protection of our pristine waterways in Northern Manitoba. CPONW focuses on preventing the spread of invasive zebra mussels which can be transported to lakes and other waters by boats and other watercraft that have been in waters infected with zebra mussels. Work includes public awareness and outreach, government liaison and assembling helpful, easy to access resource material. Visit our website for more information!
