ENHANCING BIODIVERSITY THROUGH GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE SOLUTIONS IN SURREY: “Watercourses really do drive a lot of what we do in Surrey. It always goes back to the natural resource that we inherited,” stated Rémi Dubé
“Despite the population density that we have had to accommodate, and the ongoing growth due to the demand for housing, we have to set land aside for community liveability.

The framework for the strategy came out of the Fergus Creek watershed plan and the vision for green solutions many years before in 2006,” stated Rémi Dubé.
