#ThankYouWildlife

Join us as we celebrate our deep connection with Canada’s wildlife!

Let's Celebrate National Wildlife Week!
April 8-14, 2018


This year, we are celebrating how we are all connected with wildlife. Share your connection online using #ThankYouWildlife. It can be a brief experience, a favourite animal, a life-altering moment – anything at all that you would like to celebrate with us. We are also cognizant that some comments will reflect your concern for wildlife but we will encourage a more positive engagement. We’re writing a letter of thanks to Canada’s wildlife and we are all its authors!

Our mysterious oceans

Few countries have histories as closely tied to the oceans as Canada. With nearly 10 million km2 of land we may be the world’s second largest country, but we are first when it comes to the world’s longest coastline – over 202,000 km of it traversing three of the world’s five oceans.

The birds and bees and other pollinators!
