Canadian technical report of fisheries and aquatic sciences, 1488-5379 ; 3164 The first Canadian Freshwater Mussel Research Meeting was held at the Canada Centre for Inland Waters in Burlington, Ontario on March 30, 2016. The meeting was jointly hosted by Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry with financial support from the University of Guelph and the Freshwater Mollusk Conservation Society. The workshop included 23 platform presentations and three poster presentations. The meeting was attended by 90 individuals (65 in person and 25 via WebEx). The objective of this meeting was to bring together Canadian malacologists to share past, current and ongoing research on freshwater molluscs. Topics of discussion included mussel distribution and conservation, threat evaluation, conservation genetics, sampling issues, recovery efforts, and stewardship activities. With representation from the Pacific to the Atlantic, attendees came from six Canadian provinces (BC, MB, ON, QC, NB, NS) and two American states (MI, NY) and represented federal departments, provincial/state agencies, academic institutions, environmental non-governmental organizations, naturalist groups, zoos, museums, and interested citizens. There was an emphasis on building relationships so that collaborations can be used for future research opportunities. gccst Molluscs gccst Scientific research McNichols-O'Rourke, K. A.
