Bill 170 2006

An Act to name the last Saturday in September in each year Outdoor Heritage Day in Ontario

Preamble

Ontario is blessed with a vibrant and abundant supply of natural resources that give rise to a wide variety of opportunities for Ontarians. Hunting, fishing, observing wildlife, boating, canoeing, spending time at the cottage, hiking, camping

or enjoying winter activities such as skiing, snowshoeing or snowmobiling are a few examples of outdoor activities that Ontario's outdoors offers.

Widespread public appreciation of Ontario's outdoor resources is the key to its sustainable future. By encouraging the responsible use and appreciation of these outdoor resources by all segments of Ontario's society, we will ensure our children

and future generations will be able to also enjoy these wonderful opportunities.

The creation of an Outdoor Heritage Day will assist to foster a climate of encouragement to expand Ontarian's participation in a healthy life-style that Ontario's natural resources offer while developing a culture of good stewardship and

sustainability.
