Alberta Parks is committed to engaging Albertans in decisions about parks. Our engagement framework ("Involving Albertans") describes when and how we engage with Albertans. We encourage all Albertans to take an active role in planning the future of Alberta's parks.
We want to know what you think! Your feedback will help us to better manage Alberta's parks.
