Connecting With Nature
At CWF, we want an appreciation for wildlife and nature to be an intrinsic value shared by all Canadians. We provide opportunities for people to connect with nature and to get outside and discover the benefits of immersing oneself in our outdoor world.
Learn MoreCoasts & Oceans
Canada boasts the longest coastline in the world – over 202,000 km of it traversing three of the world’s five oceans. Our waters are home to magnificent marine wildlife, including the North Atlantic Right Whale, Belugas, Orcas and many others. The coasts and oceans that exist on Canada’s perimeters are vitally important to our nation. They provide benefits like food, employment, transportation, recreation and more. No matter where you live in the country, we must do all that we can to protect them.

Fields and Forests
Canadian fields and forests have an important role to play in supporting our communities, our economy and our wildlife. Wildlife in our fields and forests are feeling the effects of changing and declining habitat, the use of toxins such as pesticides and herbicides, and climate change. The health of the majority of Canada’s wildlife depends on conservation actions taken in our forests, fields and farmlands.

Lakes and Rivers
With over two million lakes and rivers and 20 per cent of the world’s freshwater, Canada has an incredible abundance of aquatic natural resources. Canadians share a deep connection to freshwater.
Learn MoreEndangered Species and Biodiversity
Canada is fortunate to be home to thousands of wildlife species and the vast areas of land and water on which they depend. Unfortunately, many of these species are in decline, due in part to human activities. There are currently over 800 species of plants and animals at risk of being lost from Canada. There isn’t any one culprit but rather a combination of factors that are leading to species decline.
