Conservation Authorities, created in 1946 by an Act of the Provincial Legislature, are mandated to ensure the conservation, restoration and responsible management of Ontario's water, land and natural habitats through programs that balance human, environmental and economic needs. Conservation Authorities develop and deliver programs to ensure the healthy coexistence between the community and it's environment. Though the lands they manage and own, as well as the educational programs they deliver, Conservation Authorities provide opportunities for our citizens to understand the value of their natural environment and the economic and social benefits of protecting that environment. For over 50 years, Conservation Authorities have worked in cooperation with local communities to ensure easy and appropriate access to Ontario's greenspace for tourism and recreation. They mobilize and work with communities to ensure that their voices are heard in government decision-making on local environmental issues.
