EDMONTON Alberta, home to the world s largest protected area of boreal landscape, is moving to expand and turn it into a provincial park. Government officials announced on Thursday a 143,800-hectare expansion of protected area connecting the Birch River Wildland and Richardson Wildland provincial parks in the Alberta s northeastern corner. The Kitaskino Nuwenëné Wildland will become a provincial park if a 30-day public consultation period goes well. Most people think of mountains and prairies when they think of Alberta, however, the boreal region within our province s north half is vast and remarkably important, Environment and Parks Minister Jason Nixon said. The region s wetlands and forest also serve as the lungs of the province, and its waterways connect with the continental network of others, making its preservation critical.
