Canadians cherish Manitoba’s provincial parks as special places that embrace ecological wonders in their natural state. They provide us with opportunities to learn about nature, to protect wildlife, and to relax and gain a sense of renewal through a vast array of recreational opportunities such as canoeing, hiking, and swimming.

Parks that are open to forest-destructive industrial activities such as clearcut logging, mining, and hydro projects are at serious risk of having these important roles compromised to the detriment of future generations.

Presently, 47% of Whiteshell, 62% of Nopiming, and 61% of Duck Mountain provincial parks are available for industrial resource extraction activities and are being negatively impacted by them every day.
