Federation of Ontario Naturalists The month of March has brought good news f'or the 4 million Ontarions who an- nually visit our systemn of pro- vincial parks. Minister of Natural Resources Alan Pope recently announced that 240 new parks are open for study as part of the Mînistry'sý land use planning program. If al goes well, many of these can- didate areas could becomne provincial parks as early as next year. Mr. Pope's proposals could radically alter the face of the Ontario Park Systemn. Seven candidate wilderness parks are proposed, including contentious areas - at Lady Evelyn near Temagami, Ogoki-Albany north of T'- ý'ider Bay, and Atikaki on the Manitoba border. A new wilderness park is also pro- posed for Brown and Wilson Townships, in the land of granite and pine north of Parry Sound. A series of 80 nature reserves, 34 natural environ- ment parks, and 37 provincial waterways are also listed as candidates. Hioweyer, many of these areas had been previously designated as parks reserves, so their inclu- sion cornes as no surprise. Some earlier candidates, such as the Spanish River West of Sudbury, have also been dropped fromn the list. Mr, Pope's announcemnent is no guarantee that we will actually see new parks created. Each of the cani- didates will be publicly discussed as part of the Ministry's public consulta- tion on their plans during 1982. Some of the potential parks will meet strong resistance fromn the forest and mining industry, even though the total package likely represents less than 5 percent of the Ontario landscape. Even for those that survive to the end of the year, parkland designation may be stalled until the logging and mining industries have finished removifig any available resources. Nonetheless, Mr. Pope's announcement is a significant step forward to resolve the nagging problemns associated withi Ontario parks. If you are interested ini more detail about the proposed parks in your part of Ontario, I sug- gest that you ither contact your local Ministry of Natural Resouirces office or Write to Mr. Pope directly at Queen's Park, Toronto.
