Site management plan

The management plan for Fort St. Joseph National Historic Site has been tabled in Parliament recently. Reviewed every 10 years, management plans are a legislative requirement of the Canada National Parks Act and guide the management of Parks Canada’s places.

National historic sites reflect the rich and varied heritage of our nation. The new plan for Fort St. Joseph National Historic Site outlines the following key objectives:

• Conserve cultural resources and contemporary assets
• Enhance visitor experience opportunities and increase visitation

The plan was developed through public consultation and based on input from local residents and organizations, visitors, stakeholders, partners, and Indigenous communities. Through this management plan, Parks Canada is meeting its promise to protect and present Canada’s cultural heritage while also providing an opportunity for Canadians to experience and discover our diverse history in new and exciting ways.
