Rouge National Urban Park protects nature, culture, and agriculture in an integrated way, and stretches from Lake Ontario to the Oak Ridges Moraine across the cities of Toronto, Markham, and Pickering and the Township of Uxbridge.
The first ever management plan for Rouge National Urban Park, was recently tabled in Parliament by the Minister of Environment and Climate Change, and Minister responsible for Parks Canada, Catherine McKenna. This plan will guide the management of Canada's very first national urban park as the Rouge moves from establishment to full operations.
