Season 1, Episode 11 (EP 1 x 11) - Evolution of City Parks

Airdate: 1996

Canada has a strong tradition of preserving open spaces and calling them "parks. The definition, however, has changed over the years, following the patterns of settlement across the country and the evolving patterns of life. Definition and character of planned urban park space has changed with time, beginning with former military grounds and forts, cemetery grounds and smaller green spaces along transportation lines. Landfill sites were often reclaimed as green parks. The 1950's saw the expansion of recreational facilities as the priority of park space, supplemented by the donation of private estates for the public good. In our present time, a balance is being sought between preservation of natural space and the provision of facilities for human enjoyment and comfort.

Season 5, Episode 10 (EP 5 x 10) - Greenwich National Park

Airdate: 2000

A separate and self-contained addition to the existing PEI National Park, Greenwich protects a unique, migrating parabolic dune system. The spectacular dunes leave rare vegetation communities in their wake; and the continuously blowing sand has created an adjacent "skeletal" forest. Cultural artifacts have revealed 6000 years of M'iqmaq occupation, and an Acadian farming settlement.

Season 2, Episode 11 (EP 2 x 11) - Lac La Ronge Provincial Park

Airdate: 1997

Located in northern Saskatchewan, Lac La Ronge Provincial Park is dotted with 100 lakes and 1,000 islands. The northern half of the park is rock; enormous boulders rise from crystal clear lakes and rushing torrents of water thunder over remote rapids and waterfalls. The southern portion encloses the magnificent 40 square mile Lac La Ronge with treed islands of all sizes At its north end, Lac La Ronge empties into the mighty Churchill River over the spectacular 80 foot Nistowiak Falls. Because of the many lakes and abundance of fish, the area is home to a large population of majestic bald eagles. Researchers are particularly concerned about the health of the birds and their habitat; because Northern Saskatchewan is one of their last remaining breeding grounds.

Airdate: 1999

Grey whales stop here en route to feeding grounds further north. On this misty edge of Vancouver Island, the powerful force of the Pacific Ocean batters lush old-growth forests, steep cliffs and secluded beaches. Pacific Rim's West Coast trail was first laid out as a life-saving trail for shipwreck survivors. Today, it is one of the most challenging, and most popular wilderness hikes in Canada.

Season 3, Episode 11 (EP 3 x 11) - Terra Nova National Park

Airdate: 1998

Eastern Newfoundland's Terra Nova National Park protects the 'fingers of the sea'. In this unusual landscape, the ocean's bays reach deep inland to meet the edge of the boreal forest. The 'fingers' of Terra Nova are sheltered and shallow, and whales, seabirds and other marine life thrives here. Most of the park is forest, which supports a large population of moose and a small number of the endangered Newfoundland marten. The moist climate of the park produces the right conditions for the growth of bogs, which sometimes rise up to 5 meters above the surrounding landscape.

Season 2, Episode 10 (EP 2 x 10) - Mingan Archipelago National Park

Airdate: 1997

The Mingan Archipelago consists of a coastal chain of 900 islands and islets in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, stretching over a distance of 150 km. The most striking features of the islands are their dramatic topography and rocky shorelines. For generations, lighthouse keepers have kept watch and guided ships through the often treacherous waterway. The Mingan has Canada's largest concentration of shoreline arches and grottoes as well as the immense limestone sculptures known as "monoliths". The combination of climate and latitude make the islands the ideal habitat for rare, arctic, alpine plants. Over 200 species of birds can be seen on the islands, but the most endearing is the Atlantic Puffin.

Season 1, Episode 9 (EP 1 x 9) - Dinosaur Provincial Park

Airdate: 1996

Dinosaur Provincial Park in Southern Alberta is world famous for its 75 million year old bone beds, unmatched in the world for sheer number and accessibility. This park is also the most extensive area of classic "badlands" in Canada, the result of the glacial melt that occurred 15,000 years ago and the effects of wind, ice and rain ever since. Breathtakingly beautiful and awe inspiring, it is the earth exposed and at its most vulnerable.

Season 3, Episode 10 (EP 3 x 10) - Hecla Provincial Park

Airdate: 1998

Hecla Provincial Park's natural and human history are so inextricably linked to the water, that it's easy to forget that this is Manitoba. The park's most fascinating inhabitants are the majestic white pelicans that nest on the offshore islands. Hecla's first group of European settlers came from Iceland in the 19th century, to start life afresh in what would become 'New Iceland.' Most of the Icelanders have moved away, but the Hecla of today commemorates both the natural and human history of the island.

Great Canadian Parks-ALGONQUIN PROVINCIAL PARK-ONTARIO-1996

Season 1, Episode 10 (EP 1 x 10) - Algonquin Provincial Park

Airdate: 1996

Made famous by the Group of Seven Artists and the tragic figure of Tom Thompson, Algonquin displays its Autumn colours for that brief blaze of glory in late September, early October. Autumn is the best time to see Algonquin, not only because of the colours, but because the cooler weather means no mosquitoes, perfect hiking conditions, lakes like glass and fewer visitors. There are more than 1,500 km of canoe routes through thousands of lakes, ponds and streams. By paddle and portage, one can access areas of Algonquin that can't be seen otherwise. The 7,725 square kilometer area of forest, lakes and rivers is not really a wilderness park. Ironically, Algonquin owes its existence to the logging industry of the 1800's, which lobbied for the creation of a protected area here, not to preserve wilderness, which was already gone, but to serve as a wildlife sanctuary.
