Securing
Canada’s Natural Capital: A Vision for Nature Conservation
in the 21st Century
By the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy
In 2001, the NRTEE established a program to
examine key challenges and opportunities for conservation.
The goal of the program was to encourage all Canadians to
undertake stewardship of the land and waters – publicly
and privately owned – and to shape and support new tools
that can be used to better conserve, restore and maintain
the long-term health of ecosystems.
The result of extensive research and
multistakeholder input, this report presents 20 recommendations
aimed at furthering conservation in Canada. The National Round
Table is calling for federal action in five key areas: conservation
planning for whole landscapes; partnerships with industry
on working landscapes; community stewardship; conservation
of marine ecosystems; and implementing a national framework
for action.
