Canadian Intermountain Joint Venture Launched
December 10, 2003
From Larry Halverson, Parks Canada. Bird species in British Columbia and Alberta are getting a helping hand from a diverse group of people. Landowners, conservation organizations, governments, First Nations, universities and industry groups from forestry, mining, hydro and the cattle ranching sectors are united in support of a common mission: working together to maintain, enhance, restore and manage habitat for the benefit of wildlife and people in the Canadian Intermountain. Aimed at bird species in the south and central interior of BC and the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, the Joint Venture is taking a landscape approach to its efforts - addressing the stresses on the habitats that support birds and other wildlife.
