"Our Georgian Bay islands are precious to the Grant family and as a First Founder of the Trust and more recently Chair of the Nature Conservancy of Canada, the Georgian Bay Land Trust is protecting an irreplaceable resource - our land and water. There is no other cause that has so much meaning as this today."

-- Jon Grant
