Description
Summary:	Visitation is a key performance measurement for park agencies as national parks depend on public visitation and support to receive their required resources (Eagles & McCool, 2002). Park agencies face a general trend toward declining visitation, especially in metropolitan areas and among youth and culturally diverse communities. This case looks at opportunities for Parks Canada to increase youth visitation through both domestic and international tourism, with specific focus on the establishment of Canada's first national urban park in the Greater Toronto Area.
