Abstract:

National parks are created as pristine wilderness reserves, and yet at the same time are designed for the use and enjoyment of visitors. The first involves isolating parks from adverse human impacts, the second, making parks accessible to the public (Lowry 1994, Kopas 2000). Within Canada, policymakers have tried to resolve this conflict between ecological protection and supporting the enjoyment of present and future generations of park visitors through the adoption of sustainable development principles. The purpose of this research is to explore the role of business within Banff National Park, and to determine how the commercial environment created by the business community affects the goal of sustainable development within the parks.
