We'll discuss how the government plan fits, or conflicts, with Albertans views on nature and parks and how the public can get involved.

Albertans are passionate about our parks and wild spaces. New polling again confirms that Albertans care about nature and want to see more of Alberta protected for the benefit of wildlife and humans. The Government of Alberta is developing a new Plan for Parks to guide the direction of the parks network in Alberta.

This session is part of Learn Downtown, a City of Learners speaker series offering bite-size learning opportunities downtown. A complimentary lunch will be provided.
