Audit finds Parks Canada cabin program cost $15M amid unclear returns

A federally funded effort to boost park visitation by building small cabins for non-traditional campers cost at least $15 million and may have failed to recover its expenses, according to an internal evaluation that found significant gaps in financial recordkeeping.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the review of Parks Canada found that hundreds of “diversified accommodation” units — small cabins installed across national parks — were built at an average cost exceeding $57,000 each, with no clear evidence the program ever achieved full cost recovery.


Don’t sweat it the Muslims will be turning those cabins into mini-mosques.
