Help Protect One of the Last Great Wild Places on Our Planet!

In the northernmost reaches of Manitoba there is a pristine expanse of tundra, wetlands and forests as vast as Nova Scotia.

There are no permanent roads. No dams. No industrial development of any kind. Caribou and polar bears roam beneath massive flocks of birds near an estuary teeming with beluga whales.

Four First Nations, CPAWS, and others are working together to protect one of the last great wild places on our planet as an Indigenous Protected Area.

They need your help to preserve this national treasure.

Tell the provincial government to make it a priority to support the Seal River Watershed Alliance's efforts to establish one of the largest protected areas in Canada.

Dear Premier of Manitoba:

We have a remarkable opportunity to protect one of the last great wild places in our nation.

Four First Nations, CPAWS, and others are working together to protect the entire Seal River Watershed as an Indigenous Protected Area.

A resounding 83 percent of Manitobans supported the Seal River Watershed Alliance’s efforts to conserve the Seal River Watershed, according to a Probe Research poll.

Protecting the Seal River Watershed—which constitutes eight percent of Manitoba and 0.5 percent of Canada—would help our nation reach its goal of conserving 30 percent of our lands and fresh waters by 2030.

I appreciate that you’ve committed to advance a joint feasibility assessment. I urge you to work with the Seal River Watershed Alliance to determine shared responsibilities.

Thank you,
