Baywatch star Pamela Anderson got famous guarding people from the seas, now she's aiming to guard the seas from people.

The Canadian actress, who grew up on Vancouver Island, has returned to the beach in a short online video supporting a ban on oil tankers cruising through West Coast waters.

The segment was posted by the Nanaimo, B.C. chapter of the Council of Canadians on Monday.

It came a day before the House of Commons approved a non-binding motion calling for a permanent ban.

In the video, the vegetarian and PETA advocate says she thinks Vancouver Island would be devastated by even just a 30-second navigational error, which could cause a massive oil spill.

Footage of ducks covered in sludge flash by as Anderson, dressed in snugly sweater and Ugg boots, saunters over stones and urges viewers to join the coalition to keep freighters at bay.
