FREE PARKS CANADA PASS

Unlike the Provincial Park's seasonal pass, the National parks have an entry fee that is required to be paid daily. For this anniversary year Parks Canada has waived the park entry fees. The camping fees are still in place.

Ya we have a wedding to go to in Cochrane this summer and we "thinking" of driving up Hwy 22 instead of going through Kootenay and Banff National parks.... we hope to find a lot less traffic...
However we have time to decide on our route... ya never know, we might just drive through the parks to see the "show" as there is usually something interesting happening beside the Hwy. ( grin)
Me thinks it will be a gone show this summer in the Parks

Soup.

In BC's Kootenays it is referred to as a 'gone show'..meaning the hand that is feeding the critter is soon gone.

The rest of us refer to it as the 'gong show'. Same end result tho.

There was an article in the paper here reminding people that Algonquin Park is Provincial and not National so don't expect a free pass.

My pass was received last week. Thank you Canada!

My Discovery Pass arrived within a week or so ago too, as I retrieved it last Monday.

Return address on the envelope shows sent from Gatineau Quebec, with nice letterhead and brochure too.

Thanks, Canada.

Looks like I had a spelling boo boo in my note....

we've already taken advantage of it and visited Point Pelee while the February weather was mild!
