The warmer months in British Columbia are an excellent time to enjoy our beautiful BC Parks, and a reminder of how fortunate we are to live in this province. I know that I’m looking forward to getting outside and spending time with friends, family, and community this summer.
As the tourism industry bounces back from a challenging few years, more people than ever are getting involved in outdoor recreation. And our New Democrat government is making investments to protect and improve outdoor spaces for generations to come.
To preserve trail networks, and enable even more people to get outside, we’re providing $10 million to the Outdoor Recreation Council of B.C. A new endowment fund has been established to support the work of volunteer organizations and community groups that do so much to keep our trails in great shape.
This builds on the $71 million we’re investing in Budget 2023 to help preserve and enhance outdoor recreation in BC Parks, rec sites and trails all across the province.
