Mountain Equipment Co-op

Canada's largest retail co-operative, and premier provider of quality products and services for self-propelled outdoor recreation, is now a more important CPAWS partner than ever.

Building on our recent joint efforts to promote wilderness conservation through events including the 2003 Boreal Rendezvous canoe trips, the 2004 True North Wild and Free speaking tour, 2006's Nahanni Forever tour, and the 2007 tour Journey to the Yukon's Three Rivers, CPAWS and MEC will be working together even more in coming years to advance conservation of Canada';s publicly-owned wilderness lands and waters.

Both MEC and CPAWS are dedicated to a vision for the protection of Canada's public wilderness lands and waters that can serve as a model for the world, and set a new and inspiring standard for some of the last remaining wilderness landscapes on the planet.
