Overview

In partnership with the Enoch Cree Nation and the City of Edmonton, we received feedback to inform the proposed establishment of Big Island Provincial Park, a 68 hectare parcel of Crown land in southwest Edmonton along the North Saskatchewan River.

The proposed Big Island Provincial Park would be cooperatively managed by the Government of Alberta, Enoch Cree Nation and City of Edmonton. This tri-governmental approach will ensure a sustainable future for Big Island and protect its ecological, historical and cultural significance.

Your input will help us better understand the perspectives and priorities of Albertans as they relate to the establishment of Big Island Provincial Park.
