  • 2005 Rideau Canal World Heritage Site Management Plan
    2005 Foreword The Rideau Canal bears witness to 19th century engineering excellence, most notably through its ingenious adaptive design and brilliant execution. As well as being a technological feat, it provides an eloquent illustration of the defence measures taken by the British Empire in Canada in the early 1800s, which resulted in the transformation of Canada’s eastern Ontario hinterland into a transportation route whose integrity has, to this day, been maintained at an exceptionally high level. This linear serial nomination incorporates six elements that together will become the Rideau Canal World Heritage Site. These are: the Rideau Canal National Historic Site of Canada, Fort Henry National Historic Site of Canada, Fort Frederick, Cathcart Tower, Shoal Tower and Murney Tower (the Kingston Fortifications National Historic Site of Canada). This management plan specifies how the world heritage values of the nominated property will be protected for present and future generations. It constitutes the formal commitment of the Parks Canada Agency, the responsible Canadian management organization, to the conservation and protection of the property. It identifies the world heritage values that will be protected, the legislative and policy framework for management of the property, the elements of the management system in place to protect the property, and mechanisms for monitoring and periodic reporting. As a high-level, overarching management plan, this document unites the specific operational plans for the six elements by identifying and elaborating management commitments and actions that will result in an integrated approach to administering the world heritage site. I am very grateful to our dedicated team from Parks Canada, the World Heritage Site steering committee and to all of the local organizations and individuals who have demonstrated good will, hard work, spirit of cooperation and extraordinary sense of stewardship.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier.
