The “Canada Strong Pass’ takes effect Friday, offering free admission to national parks, national historic sites and marine conservation areas maintained by Parks Canada.
The pass also includes a 25 per cent discount on camping fees.
The program runs until Sept 2, and is designed to help promote Canadian tourism.
The pass also covers free national museum admission for children 17 and under, and a 50 per cent discount for 18- to 24 year-olds.
Via Rail is also offering free fares for children 17 and under if they are accompanied by an adult, and a 25 per cent discount for travellers 18 to 24 years old.
There is no physical “Canada Strong Pass” or registration required — visitors can just show up at participating locations.
