Nature Conservancy of Canada

The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is Canada's leading not-for-profit, private land conservation organization, working to protect our most important natural areas and the species they sustain. Since 1962, NCC and its partners have helped to protect more than 1.1 million hectares (2.8 million acres), coast to coast, including 45,000 hectares (111,197 acres) in Quebec. Every day, NCC ensures that new territories are conserved, through the collaboration of individuals, landowners, businesses, conservation groups, local communities, and governments. It is by protecting and managing these natural environments that they can be made accessible to this generation and those to come.
