Canadian Mercury Science Assessment Report

Description

The Canadian Mercury Science Assessment is the first comprehensive scientific evaluation and synthesis of mercury (Hg) in the Canadian environment. The assessment is the outcome of a partnership between the Clean Air Regulatory Agenda (CARA) Mercury Science Program, led by Environment Canada, and the Canadian Arctic Northern Contaminants Program (NCP), led by Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. The CARA Mercury Science Program was developed in 2007 to establish the scientific knowledge base to support regulatory decision-making for Hg. The intention of the program was to (1) determine key indicators of the effects of atmospheric emissions of Hg on environmental quality and human health; (2) measure current and past levels of these indicators; and (3) develop the capacity to predict changes in these indicators associated with changes in levels of atmospheric emissions of Hg or in the receiving environment (Morrison, 2011)...
