assiniboine forest

As preserving the carbon stored in ecosystems can help slow the accelerator pedal on climate change, a sterling opportunity for mayoral candidates lies with Winnipeg’s beloved Assiniboine Forest.

I applaud the Indigenous nations within Manitoba that are working to establish protected and conserved natural areas.

Assiniboine Forest is the natural choice for Winnipeg’s first National Urban Park.

Only six per cent of Winnipeg’s total city area is public park land, compared to the average of Canadian cities at nine per cent.

Assiniboine Forest would be an outstanding choice as a national park within Winnipeg.

Students from Amber Trails School joined CPAWS on a hike in Assiniboine Forest to learn about conservation and biodiversity.
