Thank You!

A National Park in the South Okanagan-Similkameen Valley would help protect Canada’s only desert ecosystem. Discover Canada's Pocket Desert!

The Nature Canada community helped send thousands of signatures to Parliament Hill in support of establishing a South Okanagan- Similkameen National Park in British Columbia!

Nature Canada joined the South Okanagan Similkameen National Park Network, Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society, and the Burrowing Owl Conservation Society of B.C., among many other conservation groups, to recruit people to sign the petition.

Check out these pictures of Beaker the Burrowing Owl delivering the petitions to Ottawa!
