The national parks of northern Canada provide a useful reflection of the evolving attitude towards conservation of a fragile ecosystem, in a situation complicated by a background of political, social and economic transition. This thesis examines how this transition, in particular that of land claim settlements, has affected the role and function of northern national parks.
