Good day everyone. Well they're here now and our government is already planning aggressive treatments as zebra muscles have been found in our harbour. The treatment will shut down 4 of our commercial harbours on Lake Winnipeg, knock out our fishing fleets for most of May and June and offset our recreational schedule. This prescription calls for liquid potash to be pumped into the harbours. This seems like a scary alternative as potash is the 3rd major crop nutrient after nitrogen and phosphorus and Lake Winnipeg already has a giant blue green algae problem thanks to field runoff etc. It sounds like they are only going to be postponing the inevitable and causing additional problems along the way. For the sailors living on the Great Lakes and have been dealing with zebra muscles for years, what sort of personal impact have you had with your sailboats cooling systems, sanitary systems etc. Also what local treatments have you seen?
