REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS STATEMENT

(This statement is not part of the Regulations.)

Issues

The Wildlife Area Regulations (the Regulations) provide for a controlled fall hunt program for migratory game birds (the hunt program) in the Cap Tourmente National Wildlife Area (NWA) as a conservation measure to protect the area’s large American Bulrush marsh (the bulrush marsh) from intensive grazing by the Greater Snow Goose (GSG). Recent biological monitoring by the Department of the Environment (the Department) shows that the health of the bulrush marsh in the NWA is stable and no longer deemed to be of concern. Therefore, the hunt program as a conservation measure is no longer justified.

A second issue is the entrance fees to the Cap Tourmente NWA. The Regulations set out the fees to be paid by visitors to enter the NWA and provide for the possibility of engaging naturalist services at the visitor’s expense. However, access to all other NWAs is free to encourage more Canadians to explore and experience nature. Of the Department’s protected areas, the Cap Tourmente NWA is the only one without free access, and charging an amount to enter the NWA is inconsistent with the Government of Canada’s commitments under both the Canada’s Nature Legacy initiative, which aims to increase opportunities for Canadians to connect with nature, and the Strategic Program Plan and Vision to 2030 of the Protected Areas Program, which aims to encourage Canadians to gain an appreciation for and participate in nature conservation.

Background

The Canada Wildlife Act (the Act) and its regulations allow for the establishment, management, and protection of NWAs for wildlife research, conservation, and interpretation purposes. There are currently 64 NWAs across Canada protecting over 3.5 million hectares of nationally significant habitats for animals or plants. The creation of NWAs using federal lands of high conservation value and the effective management of these NWAs serve to protect and conserve wildlife and wildlife habitats in Canada. The Department not only designates new NWAs but also undertakes periodic reviews of existing NWAs to optimize their management to more effectively protect and conserve wildlife and wildlife habitats in Canada.

The Cap Tourmente NWA spans 2 308 hectares along the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, 50 km northeast of QuĂ©bec. It was created in 1978 to protect the bulrush marsh that it encompasses, which is an important migratory staging area for the GSG.

To protect the bulrush marsh from intensive grazing by the GSG, the hunt program was introduced in the NWA in 1972 and regulated as a conservation measure starting in 1981. Biological monitoring by the Department in the NWA since 2021 has shown decreased grazing pressure on bulrushes because of the stabilization of the GSG population in the 2000sfootnote 3 and a change in the behaviour of the GSG, which now mainly uses migration staging areas outside the NWA. The monitoring results indicate that maintaining the Cap Tourmente NWA hunt program is no longer required as a conservation measure for the bulrush marsh.

Although no other NWA charged entrance fees, fees to enter the Cap Tourmente NWA were introduced in 1985 and regulated in 1995 to help partially cover operating costs because this NWA provided more visitor services than other NWAs.

In Budget 2018, the Government of Canada committed to supporting biodiversity and protecting species at risk in Canada through Canada’s Nature Legacy initiative, in part by expanding opportunities for Canadians to experience nature and appreciate biodiversity, ecosystems, and wildlife.

In addition, in 2023, the Department published the Strategic Program Plan and Vision to 2030 of the Protected Areas Program. One objective of this plan is to encourage Canadians to explore the protected areas network and enable more Canadians to learn about, visit, and enjoy the Department’s protected areas. In support of this objective, the plan states that the “Connecting Canadians to Nature” initiative will provide the public with more opportunities to connect with nature on federal lands.

Objective

The objectives of the Regulations Amending the Wildlife Area Regulations and the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations (the amendments) are to

  1. continue to manage the Cap Tourmente NWA based on the best scientific information available; and
  2. support the Government of Canada’s commitments to increase opportunities for Canadians to connect with nature and to encourage them to explore the network of protected areas.

Description

The amendments repeal the hunt program, entrance fees and incidental fees for naturalist services in the Cap Tourmente NWA by removing from the Regulations and the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations all references to this program, these entrance fees and incidental fees, and repealing the sections, schedules and/or provisions that refer to them.

The general prohibition on hunting, fishing or trapping set out in subsection 3(1) of the Regulations applies at all times to the entirety of this NWA. Following the repeal of the hunt program, subsection 3(1) of the Regulations prohibits the hunting of any wildlife in the NWA except in accordance with a permit issued under section 4 of the Regulations.

Regulatory development

Consultation

Consultations prior to prepublication in the Canada Gazette, Part I

The Department conducted consultations from November 16 to December 30, 2022, regarding the proposal to repeal the Cap Tourmente NWA hunt program and entrance fees. The proposal to repeal fees for naturalist services, underlying the proposal to repeal entrance fees, was not presented during these consultations. However, this underlying proposal is considered minor and unlikely to have any negative impact on users of the NWA, given that these services have been unavailable for a few years because of staff shortages.

The Department informed the partners and stakeholders affected by these proposals by email. Regarding the repeal of the hunt program, the Department reached out to 45 relevant partners and stakeholders in eight categories: Indigenous peoples and communities, hunting, conservation, education, provincial government, municipal governments, local organizations, and scientific research. Regarding the repeal of entrance fees, the Department contacted 72 partners and stakeholders in nine categories: Indigenous peoples and communities, associations (hunting, fishing, and outfitting), conservation, education, provincial government, municipal governments, local organizations, tourism, and tour operators.

Nine comments were received regarding the proposal to repeal the hunt program. Three of the nine comments were in favour of the proposal to repeal the hunt program, two were neutral and four were against. The negative comments came from organizations and stakeholders engaged in migratory bird hunting.

The main reason given by one of the hunting organizations was that a public-private partnership between the Department and a private business might be possible, rather than repealing the hunt program. The other hunting organizations expressed a desire to see the hunting tradition continue and proposed that the hunt program be modernized rather than repealed to better reflect management requirements, particularly the protection of the bulrush marsh.

However, the hunt program was a conservation measure to protect the bulrush marsh from intensive grazing by the GSG and not a program offered as a sporting activity or public service. Under the Regulations, it was not appropriate for the Department to continue the hunt program when existing conservation measures are sufficient to maintain the health of the bulrush marsh. Should the condition of this marsh ever warrant it, the Minister could authorize certain activities for conservation purposes, such as hazing, through permits issued under the Migratory Birds Regulations, 2022. Long-term monitoring of the bulrush marsh will make it possible to track its health and adapt management practices to protect and conserve habitats. Moreover, other areas and outfitters elsewhere in the region are available for hunting.

The Department held consultations with four First Nations, two of which provided neutral comments, while the other two did not raise any specific concerns.

One of the First Nations that responded supported closing the hunt program to non–First Nations hunters because the conservation objective of protecting the bulrush marsh from intensive grazing by the GSG, which was the goal of this program, had been achieved. However, this First Nation considers the Cap Tourmente NWA a place for its members to engage in traditional migratory bird hunting on the banks of the St. Lawrence River and requested that access to the location be maintained for members wishing to hunt there. The Department informed this First Nation that it would continue its earlier discussions with their community regarding hunting of migratory birds by their members in the NWA.

Fifteen comments were received on the proposal to repeal entrance fees. Of these 15 comments, 12 were in favour of repealing entrance fees, 2 were neutral and 1 was against. The negative comment came from a local non-profit organization offering paid recreational and tourism activities in a nature park. The main reason given by this organization, which is funded in part by its visitor admission fees, was that free access to the NWA would result in competition for customers between the two locations. This organization also stated that it was in favour of a user-pays approach and that the NWA should charge a higher entrance fee than it currently does. However, the Department has repealed entrance fees to align the Cap Tourmente NWA with the rest of the NWA network and connect Canadians to nature by providing access to more visitors. Operating costs will be covered by the Department’s general operating budget.

Summary of comments received during the public consultation period following publication in the Canada Gazette, Part I

Publication of the proposed Regulations Amending the Wildlife Area Regulations and the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations occurred on September 27, 2025, and was followed by a public consultation period of 30 days. In total, 11 individuals and organizations commented on the proposed regulations, namely 6 individuals and 5 organizations (a local association dedicated to the observation, study and protection of birds; a local agency responsible for managing a controlled migratory bird hunting zone and the GSG hunt within this zone; 2 North American organizations defending the interests of hunters; and a Canadian hunting and conservation organization writing on behalf of 8 Canadian or North American hunting and conservation organizations, including the 2 North American organizations that had commented separately).

Of the 10 parties that commented on the repeal of the hunt program, 5 supported the repeal and 5 were opposed. Of the 4 parties that commented on the repeal of the entrance fees, opinions were evenly split between those in favour and those against.

Overall, the repeal of the hunt program was supported by commenters expressing an interest in wildlife conservation and opposed by those defending the interests of hunts, while comments in favour of the repeal of the entrance fees came from those expressing an interest in greater access to the Cap Tourmente NWA and comments against free access came from those suggesting prioritizing the use of entrance fees to help fund the services provided in this NWA.

One individual and the association dedicated to the protection of birds expressed their support for both components of the amendments (the repeal of the hunt program and the repeal of the entrance fees). Three other individuals expressed their support for the repeal of the hunt program; two of these three indicated their opposition to the repeal of the entrance fees, while the third did not comment on this aspect of the amendments. The four other organizations and one individual opposed the repeal of the hunt program without, however, commenting on the repeal of the entrance fees. The comments from one last individual did not relate directly to either component of the amendments.

The arguments put forward by the five commenters that supported the repeal of the hunt program are consistent with the objectives of the amendments (as described above).

The arguments put forward by the five commenters that opposed the repeal of the hunt program highlight their concern over a lack of public access to areas where the hunting of migratory birds is allowed and emphasize the positive effects of hunting as a conservation measure. However, these arguments disregard the original purpose of the hunt program, which was not offered as a sporting activity or public service but rather as a measure to protect the bulrush marsh from the then intensive grazing by the GSG. As the health of this marsh is now stable, not least because the GSG now uses migratory staging areas located mainly outside the NWA, the environmental purpose of the hunt program is no longer applicable and it is therefore no longer justifiable under the Regulations.

The two commenters that indicated being in favour of repealing the entrance fees did not provide any supporting arguments, but one recommended ensuring that this repeal did not lead to a reduction in existing services. However, plans are in place for staff previously responsible for processing entrance fees to be redeployed to visitor welcome services and other operations linked to the anticipated increase in visitor numbers.

As for the two commenters, who expressed their opposition to the repeal of the entrance fees, they argued that maintaining modest access charges would help fund some of the services provided in the NWA. One of these commenters shared their opinion that the opening hours of the Cap Tourmente NWA are too restricted to meet public needs in a protected area of this scale, that free access alone would not be sufficient to increase visitor numbers, and that it would be necessary to simultaneously extend opening hours and maintain moderate entrance fees, which would maintain a fair balance between the contributions of the NWA users and those of the wider taxpaying public. However, a detailed analysis of the evolution of operating costs over the years highlights the limited contribution made by entrance fees and argues in favour of their repeal. It is anticipated that free access will instead contribute to a more streamlined and efficient management of the Cap Tourmente NWA.

Indigenous engagement, consultation and modern treaty obligations

An assessment of modern treaty implications (AMTI) and an analysis of consistency with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (the Declaration) were conducted to ensure that the amendments were developed and are implemented in a way that respects and complies with modern treaties, the rights of modern treaty partners, and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

The amendments do not apply to or take effect in any modern treaty area; therefore, the AMTI did not identify any modern treaty implications with respect to the amendments.

The analysis of consistency with the Declaration focused on the possible positive and negative impacts of the amendments on the rights and interests protected by the Declaration. The analysis identified certain impacts, including on the decision-making process relating to claims over lands, territories and resources, and on rights to participate in decisions affecting those lands. The analysis noted that, in the Sioui decision, the Supreme Court of Canada confirmed the existence and validity of a historical treaty with the First Nation of which the Sioui brothers were members, under which a consultation and accommodation protocol was established between Canada and this First Nation.

In the context of the analysis of the effects of the amendments on Indigenous rights within the limits of the Cap Tourmente NWA, the Department carried out its consultation process in accordance with the above-mentioned protocol. It held consultations with four First Nations, two of which provided neutral comments, while the other two did not raise any specific concerns about the amendments. The Department initiated discussions with one of the First Nations, which indicated that they are not opposed to closing the hunt program in the NWA to non-First Nations hunters, but consider the NWA to be an area of choice for their own members to engage in traditional migratory bird hunting on the banks of the St. Lawrence River. This First Nation requested that access to the area be maintained for members wishing to hunt migratory birds there. In the interests of reconciliation and of reaching an agreement on this point, the Department is continuing these discussions with this First Nation as part of a separate and independent process from that of the repeal of the hunt program, namely the process of determining the legal framework under which traditional hunting by this First Nation could be authorized within the Cap Tourmente NWA. In addition, the Department will continue its dialogue with the First Nations concerned and other interested parties regarding possible future amendments to the NWA management plan. This dialogue regarding the management plan will ensure that all parties agree on the objectives of the NWA and the management practices that will enable the achievement of these objectives, as well as on the authorized activities (including those involving Indigenous rights).

In the absence of any opposition to the amendments from the First Nations affected and of any concerns expressed with respect to the separate and independent process of discussions with the First Nation wishing to continue its traditional migratory bird hunting within the NWA, the amendments are consistent with the Declaration.

Instrument choice

The Act grants the Governor in Council the authority to establish NWAs by regulation and enables the Minister to ensure that wildlife and habitats are conserved in these NWAs and to take measures to promote such conservation, subject to the Regulations and the applicable provisions of the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations. The conditions applicable to specific NWAs may be amended only by regulation. Accordingly, no other instruments were considered.

Regulatory analysis

Benefits and costs

This analysis presents the incremental benefits and costs associated with the amendments, expressed as the difference between the status quo, or baseline scenario, and the scenario in which the hunt program, entrance fees and fees for naturalist services in the Cap Tourmente NWA are repealed. An analytical period of 10 years was used. Unless otherwise indicated, all monetary values in this analysis are expressed in constant 2025 Canadian dollars, over the period from 2027 to 2036, discounted at a rate of 3%.

Most of the expected monetized impacts of the amendments are distributional in nature; that is, they will result in equivalent changes in enjoyment (benefits and costs) throughout society, producing a net neutral outcome for Canadians. In other words, they will not generate any net benefits or costs.

Benefits

The amendments repealing the hunt program will reduce the operating and administrative costs associated with managing the program and result in the reallocation of dedicated human resources to other NWA management operations. The main environmental benefits of repealing the hunt program will be decreased disturbance to the GSG during its migratory stopover and a more peaceful environment for visitors in the fall.

The amendments repealing the entrance fees will result in free access for the public. It is expected that free access could benefit a greater number of visitors than the average number of visitors to the NWA, including new visitors who would not otherwise visit the reserve if entrance fees were maintained. For example, the number of visitors jumped 41% above the average when fees were waived in 2017 for the 150th anniversary of Confederation, and 53% when fees were waived in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, more Canadians will benefit from the well-being associated with being in nature and observing the natural environment in the NWA.

Visitors could save up to $310,000 annually, or up to $2.6 million over 10 years. This estimate is based on the highest current entrance fee of $6 per adult and the highest number of visitors between 2015 and 2023, excluding years with waived fees, which is approximately 52 000 visitors.

The personnel currently handling entrance fees at the NWA will be reallocated to visitor services and other operations related to the expected increase in visitor numbers. The Government will also benefit from reduced administrative costs associated with the complex management of this NWA’s recurring operating deficit. Repealing the entrance fees will permanently align the Cap Tourmente NWA with the rest of the NWA network in terms of free access, which will contribute to the Government of Canada’s objective of encouraging more Canadians to explore nature. However, most of these impacts will be distributional in nature because the portion of the NWA’s management costs currently partially funded by entrance fees will simply be transferred as an additional financial burden to the Department. In other words, the monetary benefit to visitors of this NWA will be transferred in the form of costs to society as a whole.

Repealing the fees for naturalist services is a purely administrative measure, since these services have not been offered for several years. This measure simplifies the Regulations and the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations.

Costs

Repealing the hunt program will eliminate opportunities for hunters who frequent this NWA and, in theory, their corresponding enjoyment. However, there are alternatives elsewhere in the broader region for this type of hunting. Incremental costs can be associated with travelling longer distances to reach alternative destinations, but no loss of enjoyment is expected.

Increased numbers of visitors to the NWA would also reduce visitors’ enjoyment of their nature viewing experience and place pressure on the Department’s human resources that are responsible for on-site visitor welcome and other services.

In addition, non-recurring initial costs of approximately $7,000 to replace signage and publicize the amendments are also expected to be borne by the Government of Canada.

The loss of revenue incurred by the NWA as a result of eliminating the existing entrance fees, which could amount to $310,000 annually or $2.6 million over 10 years, will be assumed by the Department. However, as mentioned in the “Benefits” section above, this additional financial burden on the Department will be offset by the savings in entrance fees realized by visitors.

With the implementation of the amendments, it is possible that other nature parks in the area that charge entrance fees, including non-profit organizations (NPOs), may experience a decrease in visitors, and therefore in revenue, due to increased competition resulting from free access to the NWA. These revenue losses could amount to $280,000 per year. However, given the distributional nature of these losses (visitors who decide to visit the NWA instead will save an amount equivalent to the losses incurred by these parks) and the very low probability that such a scenario will occur due to the low substitutability of experiences between the Cap Tourmente NWA and local parks that charge entrance fees, these potential costs are not considered incremental.

Table: Summary of monetized benefits and costs
Note: Data have been rounded.
Monetarized impacts Total (present value) Annualized value (not discounted)
Benefits: Canadians — Potential visitors Up to $2.6 million Up to $310,000
Costs: Government — Increased management costs incurred Up to $2.6 million Up to $310,000
Total (net monetized benefits or costs) $0 $0

Small business lens

The amendments do not impose any direct costs on small businesses. However, as mentioned in the “Costs” section, it is possible that a local park, that is, a small non-profit business, could lose visitors due to increased competition from other outdoor experiences and activities as a result of the NWA’s decision to eliminate entrance fees. Although this effect is expected to be limited due to the low substitutability between the experiences and activities offered at the two locations, an analysis under the small business lens was conducted on the basis of a conservative assumption in order to take potential impacts into account. The potential decrease in visitor numbers could lead to a reduction in revenue of up to $280,000 annually, or $2.3 million over 10 years.

One-for-one rule

The one-for-one rule does not apply to the amendments, as there is no change in the administrative burden on businesses.

Regulatory cooperation and alignment

The amendments are not related to a work plan or commitment under a formal regulatory cooperation forum. However, as the amendments will protect and conserve wildlife and wildlife habitats in Canada, they will support commitments made by Canada under the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity and the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Moreover, the repeal of entrance fees will achieve the objective of aligning the Cap Tourmente NWA with the rest of the NWA network in Canada in terms of free access.

To achieve these commitments, the Department is working with the provinces and territories by, among other things, negotiating Nature Agreements to advance shared conservation goals. Nature Agreements between the federal and interested provincial and territorial governments include clear and strong commitments to nature conservation and protection, as well as mutually agreed upon actions and financial commitments that Canada and the province or territory take to reach their individual and collective conservation goals.

International obligations

The amendments do not affect obligations arising from Canada’s international trade agreements.

Effects on the environment

The responses to the questions from the preliminary review of the climate, nature and economy lens assessment indicate that the amendments will not produce any significant effects related to climate change, biodiversity or the environment. The stabilization of the GSG population since the 2000s, and a change in behaviour of the GSG so that it now mainly uses migratory staging areas outside the NWA, indicate that the amendments, particularly the repeal of the hunt program, will have a minimal effect on nature and biodiversity. A potential increase in visitor numbers as a result of free access can put pressure on migratory birds, other wildlife and wildlife habitats, as well as cause a slight change in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to increased traffic to and within the NWA. However, the magnitude of this pressure, its residual effects and the increase in GHG emissions is likely to be minimal, especially since the existing parking spaces in the NWA limit the number of daily visitors, and access is quota-based once this limit is reached. As a result, no strategic environmental analysis has been undertaken.

In accordance with guidance under the Cabinet Directive on Strategic Environmental and Economic Assessment, the strategic environmental and economic assessment of the amendments did not include a strategic economic analysis due to their nature and scope.

Gender-based analysis plus

A gender-based analysis plus (GBA+) of the amendments found no negative impacts related to gender or other identity factors.

Implementation, compliance and enforcement, and service standards

Implementation

The amendments come into force on April 1, 2027. The Department is the lead federal organization responsible for compliance promotion and enforcement activities according to the protections provided for under the Act and the Regulations.

Compliance and enforcement

A compliance strategy has been developed to support the implementation of the amendments. Compliance promotion initiatives are proactive measures that encourage voluntary compliance with the legislation through education and outreach activities that raise awareness and understanding. Given that the amendments will not impose any significant new requirements, compliance promotion and enforcement activities, including the prohibition on hunting, will be limited and will have a targeted focus. These activities can involve web content, social media, direct mail outs, signage, and responses to stakeholder inquiries.

The Act provides wildlife officers (designated under the Act) with various powers (for example inspection, right of way, search and seizure, and custody of things seized). Enforcement measures are available to wildlife officers (compliance orders, tickets, administrative monetary penalties [AMPs] and prosecutions) to secure compliance. The Designation of Regulatory Provisions for Purposes of Enforcement (Canada Wildlife Act) Regulations (the Designation Regulations) designate offences under the Act that subject an offender to minimum fines and increased maximum fines upon conviction by prosecution.

Enforcement activities are generally prioritized based on conservation risk to wildlife and wildlife habitats as well as the level of risk of non-compliance. In cases involving minor situations of non-compliance, a warning, compliance order, ticket or AMP may be appropriate. In cases involving a serious incident of non-compliance, prosecution may be the most appropriate recourse for enforcement purposes. In such cases, the fine regime described in the Designation Regulations will apply upon conviction and explain offences and punishments (penalties, fines and imprisonment) for offenders, whether they are individuals, small revenue corporations or other persons. Part I of Schedule I.2 to the Contraventions Regulations designates offences under the Regulations that can subject an offender to a fine. Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 1 to the Environmental Violations Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations designates violations under the Act, and Division 2 designates violations under the Regulations, which can subject a violator to an AMP.
