Report No. 15: Aboriginal Toolkit (pdf 6.7MB or pdf 1.9MB)

The Aboriginal Toolkit provides a valuable resource for Aboriginal communities who would like to be involved in invasive plant management, and provides information, guidance, and builds linkages that create awareness across key agencies, including government agencies, industry, Aboriginal, and non-native communities.

This toolkit is intended to be useful for Aboriginal communities who do not yet have a noxious weed or invasive plant program, as well as those who would like to expand their current program and respond with Pest Management Plans.

Report No. 14: Local Government Toolkit for Invasive Plant Management (pdf 1.7MB screen or pdf 7.2 MB medium resolution).

The Government Toolkit is designed to assist municipalities in determining what type of invasive management program to form.  The toolkit lists the top 10 reasons why municipalities and regional district should get involved.  It also highlights extensive research around legislative measures, example bylaws and non-regulative solutions.  The toolkit lists several examples of provincial programs currently at work and provides an extensive reference list for further information. The toolkit is valuable for municipalities and regional districts as they improve existing services or incorporate invasive management programs.
