Consultation: First Draft of the Gatineau Park Act

Consulation – Draft Gatineau Park Act

Did you know that Gatineau Park has no legal status?

Upon my election as Member of Parliament for Pontiac – Kitigan Zibi, I wanted to make Gatineau Park a real park! This natural treasure, with its exceptional biodiversity, is something we must safeguard for ourselves and for future generations.

This summer, I had the privilege of working alongside Senator Rosa Galvez to draft a bill aimed at protecting Gatineau Park. We must establish clear, official boundaries and preserve our park for the people of Canada, dedicated to their benefit, education, and enjoyment. The Park’s ecological integrity will be protected, and it will be maintained in a way that allows future generations to experience its unspoiled beauty.

I invite you to consult the main clauses of our bill and let us know what you think (sophie.chatel@parl.gc.ca).  This is a unique opportunity to help shape this bill: your voice matters.
