The annual public forum for Jasper National Park will happen in person on Apr. 19.

It will take place at the Jasper Activity Centre multi-purpose hall (305 Bonhomme St.) with an open house drop-in at 5:30 p.m., year-in review presentation at 6 p.m. and table topic discussions at 6:45 p.m.

“We’re excited to get people together in person again to discuss what ties us all together — Jasper National Park,” Jasper Field Unit superintendent Alan Fehr said in a news release. “While this is a great opportunity for Parks Canada to share progress made in 2022, it is also a time for us to listen. This year’s annual forum format allows participants to speak directly with Parks Canada staff and create an open dialogue. Whether you come for 15 minutes or stay all evening, we look forward to chatting with you.”

Parks Canada will share highlights of the past year and priorities for the year ahead for the Alberta mountain park. The public can drop in and explore various topics including trails, fire, bears in the valley, visitation, Indigenous relations, caribou, realty and development.

The 2022 annual report will be posted on the park website before the forum. The year-in-review presentation will be recorded and available upon request after the event  for those who can’t make it in person and who email [email protected].
