Recreation Access: Environmental Justice Report on Permits

This bill aims to investigate how recreation permits affect communities that often face greater environmental or health challenges. The government will prepare a report to understand if these communities have equal access to recreational lands and what barriers exist. The goal is to facilitate access to nature for all citizens.
Key points
The government will study how recreation permits impact access to green spaces for low-income, minority, and indigenous communities.
The report will identify barriers to recreational land access and propose solutions to make it easier for everyone to use them.
Participation of recreation service providers in data collection for the report will be voluntary and will not affect their permits.
