A Century of Parks Canada, 1911-2011 by Claire Elizabeth Campbell Pdf
When Canada created a Dominion Parks Branch in 1911, it became the first country in the world to establish an agency devoted to managing its national parks. Over the past century this agency, now Parks Canada, has been at the center of important debates about the place of nature in Canadian nationhood and relationships between Canada s diverse ecosystems and its communities."
The National Parks of Canada by Kevin Alfred McNamee Pdf
Principal Photography by J. A. Kraulis Foreword by David Suzuki No other nation contains within its boundaries a pristine wilderness at once so varied and extensive. The best hope of preserving what is left of Canada`s wild country lies in its national parks. There are 37 parks in Canada`s national park system representing every province. J. A. Kraulis, one of Canada`s most respected photographers, travelled to nearly every corner of the land to record in 120 photographs, the extraordinary beauty of The National Parks of Canada. With authoritative text by Kevin McNamee of the Canadian Nature Federation, dozens of archival photographs and eleven full colour maps, The National Parks of Canada is both a celebration and a reminder that we need to protect Canada`s wilderness.

In Taking the Air, Paul Kopas takes a comprehensive approach to the policy aspects of the management of parks and protected areas. He scrutinizes the policy-making process for national parks since the mid-1950s and interrogates the rationale and policies that have governed their administration. He argues that national parks and park policy reflect not only environmental concerns but also the political and social attitudes of bureaucrats, citizens, interest groups, Aboriginal peoples, and legal authorities. He explores how the goals of each group have been shaped by the historical context of park policy, influencing the shape and weight of their contributions.

Phantom Parks is a hard-hitting and passionate examination of why our national parks are failing to protect the wild - and what must be done to reverse this trend. Having travelled throughout most of Canada`s national park system, Rick Searle concludes that there is no one single cause to the current ecological crisis, rather it is about a slow death of a thousand cuts. The wild within our parks is being threatened and drained away by a variety of causes: the lobby for growth and development of park facilities to accommodate ever-increasing demands for recreation and tourism; adjacent land use such as farming, logging and mining, which contribute to the parks becoming islands of extinction; global pressures such as acid rain, climate change and the long-range transportation of pollutants. There are solutions to the crisis, however. Maintaining the wildness of the national parks now requires radical changes in the way we perceive and use them. There is hope, but we must act quickly. Phantom Parks is a book we can only ignore at our peril. (2000)
Ecology & Wonder in the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site by Robert W. Sandford Pdf
Ecology and Wonder celebrates Western Canada's breathtaking landscape. The book makes several remarkable claims. The greatest cultural achievement in the mountain region of western Canada may be what has been preserved, not what has been developed. Protecting the spine of the Rocky Mountains will preserve crucial ecological functions. Because the process of ecosystem diminshment and species loss has been slowed, an ecological thermostat has been kept alive. This may well be an important defence against future impacts of climate change in the Canadian West.
