Senator urges immediate expansion of Nahanni National Park Reserve and World Heritage Site to protect the entire South Nahanni Watershed For immediate release March 30, 2004 • Cette information est aussi disponible en français. • Background information about this issue is also available. March 30, 2004 – Ottawa – Today, in the Senate of Canada, the Honourable Consiglio Di Nino is expected to introduce a motion urging the Government of Canada to expand Nahanni National Park Reserve to include the entire South Nahanni Watershed, and to stop all industrial activity within the watershed of this internationally renowned wilderness national park. Nahanni National Park Reserve is a key area for conservation in the boreal forest region and in the mountainous Yellowstone to Yukon corridor. Located in the Northwest Territories, it was the first natural World Heritage Site to be designated by the United Nations. “Expanding Nahanni National Park Reserve now to protect the entire watershed is critical if we are to seize this great opportunity to protect clean water, wildlife and wilderness into the future,” says Harvey Locke, Vice President of Conservation for the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society. “This motion in the Senate shows that conserving this magnificent place is not a political issue, but an opportunity for all Canadians to work with First Nations to achieve a world class conservation outcome. All that is needed is for the federal government to move boldly on its commitment to expand the park. The risk of waiting is high.” cpaws.org
