A resolution raising awareness of lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens).
This non-binding Senate resolution (SRES 649) encourages increased awareness and conservation efforts for lake sturgeon, a long-lived, ancient freshwater fish species.

The resolution highlights lake sturgeon's ecological role as ecosystem health indicators and their cultural significance to Indigenous communities. It does not create new laws or funding but promotes existing conservation partnerships and public engagement.
