From that humble beginning was born Banff National Park, Canada's first national park and the world's third. Spanning 6,641 square kilometres (2,564 square miles) of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers, Banff National Park is one of the world's premier destination spots. In Banff’s early years, The Canadian Pacific Railway built the Banff Springs Hotel and Chateau Lake Louise, and attracted tourists through extensive advertising. In the early 20th century, roads were built in Banff, at times by war internees, and through Great Depression-era public works projects. Since the 1960s, park accommodations have been open all year, with annual tourism visits to Banff increasing to over 5 million in the 1990s. Millions more pass through the park on the Trans-Canada Highway. As Banff is one of the world's most visited national parks, the health of its ecosystem has been threatened.

  • From Science to Survival: Using Virtual Exhibits to Communicate the Significance of Polar Heritage Sites in the Canadian Arctic
    Open Archaeology 2016; 2: 209–231 Original Study Open Access Peter Dawson*, Richard Levy From Science to Survival: Using Virtual Exhibits to Communicate the Significance of Polar Heritage Sites in the Canadian Arctic DOI 10.1515/opar-2016-0016 Received January 20, 2016; accepted October 29, 2016 Abstract: Many of Canada’s non-Indigenous polar heritage sites exist as memorials to the Heroic Age of arctic and Antarctic Exploration which is associated with such events as the First International Polar Year, the search for the Northwest Passage, and the race to the Poles. However, these and other key messages of significance are often challenging to communicate because the remote locations of such sites severely limit opportunities for visitor experience. This lack of awareness can make it difficult to rally support for costly heritage preservation projects in arctic and Antarctic regions. Given that many polar heritage sites are being severely impacted by human activity and a variety of climate change processes, this raises concerns. In this paper, we discuss how virtual heritage exhibits can provide a solution to this problem. Specifically, we discuss a recent project completed for the Virtual Museum of Canada at Fort Conger, a polar heritage site located in Quttinirpaaq National Park on northeastern Ellesmere Island (http://fortconger.org). Keywords: Arctic; Heritage, Fort Conger, Virtual Reality, Computer Modeling, Education, Climate Change, Polar Exploration, Digital Archaeology. 1 Introduction Climate change and the emerging geopolitical significance of the Arctic have important implications for Canada’s polar heritage. In many Arctic regions, thawing permafrost, land subsidence, erosion, and flooding are causing irreparable damage to heritage sites associated with Inuit culture, historic Euro-North American exploration, whaling and the fur trade (Blankholm, 2009; BViikari, 2009; Camill, 2005; Hald, 2009; Hinzman et al., 2005; Morten, 2009; Stendel et al., 2008).

    Fort Wellington National Historic Site Guardian of the St. Lawrence Open May to Thanksgiving Weekend Strategically built along the St. Lawrence, Fort Wel- lington is now one of Canada’s best preserved British forts. Built in Prescott during the War of 1812, Fort Wellington de- fended the vital St. Lawrence shipping route. Although Fort Wellington was never attacked, it was the staging point for a successful raid on Ogdensburg in 1813 . The fort was later abandoned . Fort Wellington was again called into service in 1837 when Upper and Lower Canada rose up in rebellion. The fort be- Photos ©Fort Wellington came the main depot for the area’s militia and in 1838, mili- tia stationed at Fort Wellington were called into battle. Expecting to be seen as liberators, American rebels landed at nearby Windmill Point but were met by 2,000 British soldiers and militia instead. In 1923, Fort Wellington became a National Historic Site and is now operated by Parks Canada. The fort consists of earthworks surrounded by a palisade. Inside, you can stroll by the officers’ quarters, discover the coponniere tunnel, explore the three-storey blockhouse, and chat with the costumed interpretive guides. Children can make their visit an adventure by becoming Parks Canada Xplorers to discover this unique fort. The site also boasts a new visitors center featuring the wreck of an 1812 -era gunboat. Daily visits are self-guided and guided tours of the fort are offered every Saturday and Sunday throughout July and August beginning at 1:30pm. During the summer months, the fort offers summer camps for children and also hosts an annual Canada Day Celebration every July 1st from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
