The Nature Conservancy of Canada, BC Region
For over 40 years, the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) has been working to protect Canada’s most threatened natural habitats and the endangered species that call them home. NCC is Canada’s only national charity dedicated to preserving ecologically significant areas through outright purchase, donations and conservation easements. Their plan of action is partnership building and cooperation with individuals, corporations, community groups and government bodies. Since 1962, NCC has secured a long-term future for more than 1000 properties, comprising over 1.67 million acres of significant habitat. Locally, The Nature Conservancy of Canada assisted in the purchase of ecologically valuable lands, including Long’s Ranch in the White/Vaseux Lakes area.
