Parks Canada announced on Wednesday that camping will gradually resume at a number of national parks and historic sites across the country starting June 22 but will, initially, only be open to those with existing reservations.National parks, historic sites and marine conservation areas across the country closed in mid-March to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
Many national parks were then reopened on June 1 as restrictions lifted, but camping facilities at those sites were still closed as Parks Canada worked out how to reinstate the services in a safe way.“We are all doing our part to flatten the curve and limit the spread of COVID-19,” Environment and Climate Change Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said.
