You may have heard that Parks Canada will be taking the Canadian Register of Historic Places offline in spring 2026. The existing database is at the end of its technological life. There is no plan for its replacement.

Together with the Museums Association of Saskatchewan (MAS) we have written a letter to The Honourable Julie Dabrusin, Minister of Environment, Climate Change and Nature and The Honourable Wade Grant, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Environment and Climate Change to express our serious concerns about the decommissioning of the Register, and the loss of this data to the public. Read the letter at the link below.
