A Gros Morne marine conservation group gets a boost from Ottawa

CBC Newfoundland Morning

The federal government is spending 1.7 million dollars to help a marine conservation group based in the Gros Morne region. Atlantic Healthy Oceans Initiative, also known as AHOI, is a non-profit group that does work in Western Newfoundland to protect the health of oceans. It will use the new federal money to expand its programs. Long Range Mountains MP Gudie Hutchings announced the money on Friday in Norris Point, and the CBC's Sanuda Ranawake was there.
