N.W.T celebrates National Parks Day

Yellowknife, NWT – National Parks Day is being celebrated across Canada tomorrow and the G.N.W.T says it recognizes the annual celebration as a significant day.

The territory is after all home to 33 territorial and five national parks.

In a news release, Industry, Tourism and Investment Minister David Ramsay says N.W.T parks are among the finest in the country.

He says some territorial parks garnered national media attention this year with Nahanni National Park being recognized as a must-see place in 2014, and Fred Henne and Blackstone Territorial Parks making the list for Best Family Campgrounds in the country.
