General Motors of Canada Limited would like to acknowledge Friends of Second Marsh for their gracious support and expertise throughout the years.

In particular, we would like to express a special recognition to Jim Richards for his tireless work and for the contribution of time and knowledge that he brought to the McLaughlin Bay Wildlife Reserve project. His dedication continues to play a vital role in making the Reserve a sanctuary where visitors can observe, learn and enjoy the wildlife and peaceful surroundings.

Mr. Richards' contribution was also instrumental in the creation of this web site.
