While many have to pay to access any of the dozens of parks across the country, there is a group that has been granted free admission.

It is not hurting me but as a young canadian facing insane inflation and record home prices, i could benefit from a free hike in the woods too.

You had it free for 17 years apparently

Day pass admission is 10-11$ for adults

Yearly passes cost around 135$

If you have 7 people in a car you can use that yearly pass for your group of 7.

Kids under 18 are free by default.

And it was free for everyone in 2020.

While it's true that everyone should have access to the national parks, you have to understand that raising that issue in the current context works to amplify the "fuck immigrants" messaging of the Sun. So, yeah, you should go take a hike in the woods.

Psst. We're all facing inflation and high house prices. It's no excuse to not be nice to people experiencing all that and had no citizenship.

If trivial generosity with little actual impact to you is a challenge, is Canada Right for you?

Hikes are free. Camping and parking is not.
