Whales of the St. Lawrence River - A bilingual ecology colouring book

This bilingual ecology colouring book will introduce grade 3-6 students and their families to the thirteen whale species that visit the St. Lawrence River and ways people can help their populations thrive. Each species spotlight features a hand-drawn colouring page by an Ottawa-area artist as well as ecological information about the species such as their diet and habitat needs. The book also includes space for students to write their observations and questions about whales, and provides them with action steps they can take in their community to benefit local whale populations. The creation of this book is supported by two environmental charities: Ocean Wise, and Watersheds Canada.

This project has been created in commemoration of the lives of all the victims of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, including two Ocean Bridge ambassadors, Danielle Moore and Micah Messent. We aspire to carry on their legacy and commitment to making the world a better place by creating long-lasting impacts with a firm commitment to driving positive change for the environment and our ocean. We will never forget the light that Danielle and Micah brought to the world and will continue to keep them in our hearts.

This work is partially funded by the Commemoration Fund for Victims of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 Tragedy.
