?? "Another" Big Brother of Diving for the Millennium ??

Their at it "again"! New legislation to restrict the rights of the diving community.
Responsible divers already support many of the goals in this legislation, now they are
trying to restict your freedom to explore and enjoy the shipwrecks that we, the diving
community have researched, discovered and preserved.

This legislation is "scary" and will only harm divers, dive shops, charter boat
operators and others, who rely on tourism from Canada and the United States to visit
these shipwrecks.

Divers, make your voice heard on Bill 13, 1999. An Act to Preserve Ontario's Marine
Heritage and Promote Tourism by Protecting Heritage Wrecks and Artifacts. Which reads
in part: "No person shall"..."Enter a heritage wreck"...
