Today we announced the protection of a new 1954 hectare Wentworth Valley Wilderness Area, a 874 hectare Chase Lake Wilderness Area, and a 202 hectare Steepbank Brook Nature Reserve. I was happy to have worked on protecting these lands, and other new and expanded protected areas in Environment and now Lands and Forestry. Stay tuned for more protected land protection in the coming months! #conservation #protectedareas #ecotourism #13percentgoal #wentworth #biodiversity #habitatprotection
