Swim Drink Fish Canada

Swim Drink Fish Canada works to restore and protect Ontario's freshwater lakes and rivers while addressing food security through sustainable fish populations. The organization monitors water quality across dozens of lakes in the Greater Toronto Area and beyond, conducting scientific research to identify contamination and pollution threats. Beyond environmental protection, the charity focuses on making local fish accessible as a nutrient-rich food source for communities facing food insecurity. Through education programs and advocacy, Swim Drink Fish Canada connects the health of freshwater ecosystems directly to human nutrition and wellbeing. The organization partners with Indigenous communities, researchers, and local groups to ensure that the fish people depend on are safe to catch and eat, addressing both environmental and hunger-related challenges in Ontario.
