LET US HEAR FROM YOU!
Submit your nominations to Canada’s TOP TEN Endangered Places List by May 18, 2012
Ottawa, ON March 13, 2012 – The Heritage Canada Foundation is accepting nominations to Canada’s Top Ten Endangered Places List. The list is released annually to bring national attention to sites at risk due to neglect, lack of funding, inappropriate development and weak legislation. It has become a powerful tool in the fight to make landmarks, not landfill.
HCF
uses three primary criteria to determine the 10 final sites for inclusion on the
list:
- Significance of the site
- Urgency
of the threat
- Community support for its preservation
If you
know a site that should be included on our list, tell us about it
today.
