Yep. Its not technically wrong to call them state parks, but still fuck’em that is our PROVINCIAL park.

Maybe a small cultural hill we are on right now but we give us enough of these hills and suddenly we lose any semblance of cultural uniqueness.

It is wrong as the state would be national government. So these parks are run by the provinces and not the state of Canada.

Oh, 100% agree.

I’m just saying I understand WHAT they were trying to do, even if it stepped on a cultural landmine. As I said, Ive reported about a dozen parks now myself.
