Located in an area known as the "Land of Little Sticks", the proposed Colvin Lake Park would cover 162,800 hectares of transition area between tundra and boreal forest running along the Saskatchewan border and close to Nunavut.

The proposed 447,000 hectares Nueltin Lake Park, is located east of Colvin Lake, and the area is characterized by numerous eskers braiding across the landscape.

The Conservation Manitoba webpage indicates the Constitutional rights of aboriginal people to access these areas for hunting, trapping, fishing, and other traditional pursuits will be respected, but it remains unclear if adequate consultation has taken place with local aboriginal people regarding the proposed parks.

Go to the Manitoba Conservation, Public Consultations webpage, for information on the proposals and how to file your own comments.
