Abstract
Ecological integrity is the guiding purpose for protected area planning and management in Ontario by law. The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) is developing a strategic framework that guides ecological integrity work in Ontario’s provincial parks and conservation reserves. The release of a discussion paper, Ecological Integrity in Ontario’s Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves: A Discussion Paper is one of the first steps in developing this strategic framework. We provided high‐level recommendations on ecological integrity in planning and management, particularly as the effort to address ecological integrity is interconnected with a myriad of Ontario policies from climate change to the Far North Land Use Strategy to Ontario’s Biodiversity Strategy. We also provide responses to questions posed in the Discussion Paper.
