Parks Canada says its unprecedented decision to shut down public access to all lakes in two of B.C.’s most well-known national parks is necessary to prevent a potential disaster.
The organization said it has extended its closure of all waterbodies in Kootenay and Yoho National Parks until at least March 2025.
The drastic move is being made to protect fish species vulnerable to whirling disease.
