AWA News Release: Ecological Integrity May be the Loser in New Banff Park Management Plan

November 24, 2009

The primary mandate for Banff National Park – managing to maintain the park’s ecological integrity – looks like receiving short thrift if a proposed new management plan goes ahead unchanged. Instead, a shift towards maximizing the “visitor experience” receives a much higher profile throughout the new draft plan.

There is an urgent need to engage people with nature. All aspects of it. Not just the pretty bears and cute snakes. Also the realities of it, the death, struggles, and pain. Not only are people losing touch with nature, they are losing touch with the realities of nature.
