Reminds me of marine Eelgrass (Zostera) but wider bladed. I cannot get nearer to it without a boat hence the poor photos. It would be growing in at least 1m of water, possibly more. In Flora of NS there are few species flat bladed submerged freshwater grasses except Tapegrass (Vallisneria americana). I visit many lakes around here and had not noticed this aquatic grass before. Anyone able to ID it from the pics or description? https://www.flickr.com/photos/150605880@N07/50521833012/in/dateposted/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/150605880@N07/50520933613/in/dateposted/ And, what does “orange-listed” mean in the plant world of NS?
