The Great Lakes Country is the territory of the Great Lakes watershed, stretching from Duluth and Thunder Bay in the north and west, to Kingston and Watertown in the east, ecompassing urban landscapes and wildnerness, expansive farms and towering factories, Yankees and Canucks. Of course, the Great Lakes themselves - the prize of the region - are some of the greatest natural resources of North America, if not the world.
This is a website dedicated to news about protecting - and enjoying - the Great Lakes Country, from north to south, east to west. We collect good news and bad news (as demonstrated above), good opinions and not-so-good opinions (but who are we to judge?). And then we catalog them as best we can so that you can quickly survey the biggest issues in the Great Lakes watershed. We regularly update the website, which is organized by topic.
