Like Banff National Park, Canada's first national park, Strathcona Provincial Park, BC's first national park, represents all that is good and bad about the province's protected area system. It has been loved and abused for almost a century. The accompanying video presents a compressed history of the significant events that have shaped the park as told by former BC Parks staff and by long-time park activists. Never before seen images from private collections capture the drama of such events as the flooding of Buttle Lake or BC's first mass arrest of protesters attempting to stop the Cream Lake Silver mine.
