Wilderness Committee
Dedicated to preserving Canada's wilderness, wildlife, and climate through research, education, and community action.
Who we are

With a head office in Vancouver and additional field offices in Victoria, Winnipeg, and Toronto, our team works across Canada. We are powered by 60,000 supporters, volunteers, and activists committed to protecting nature and wildlife.
