Below is an introduction to some National Parks of Canada.
Wood Buffalo National Park of Canada
Wood Buffalo National Park is Canada's largest national park and one of the largest in the world. Established in 1922 to protect the last remaining herds of bison in northern Canada, it now protects an outstanding example of Canada's Northern Boreal Plains. The park was named as a World Heritage Site in 1983. Here, visitors can find some of the best examples of karst topography in North America, unique Salt Plains.
Banff National Park of Canada
Banff's rich history dates back to 1885, when three railway workers came across hot mineral springs surfacing from deep within the mountains. This discovery led to the establishment of Banff National Park, and marked the beginning of Canada's national parks system. Covering 6,641 square kilometers of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers, Banff National Park is one of the world's premier destination spots. Banff is home to a number of outstanding geological and ecological features, including the hot springs and the Castleguard Caves, Canada's longest cave system.
St. Lawrence Islands National Park of Canada
Conceived in the 1870s, St. Lawrence Islands is one of Canada's
oldest national parks. Located in the scenic 1000 Islands Tourist Area,
this tiny jewel has a rich and complex natural human history. Centuries
ago, aboriginal peoples referred to it as the “Garden of the Great Spirit”.
Today, 24 scenic islands, along with a mainland area at Mallorytown
Landing, are included in the park. Here, water is the main attraction. Both
power and sail boaters stop at the park's islands on the way to the
St. Lawrence River.
Grasslands National Park of Canada
It was here Sitting Bull that took refuge after the Battle of Little Big Horn in 1876. Grasslands National Park is the first national park of Canada to preserve a large part of the mixed prairie grasslands. This magical land of diversity, beauty and history is divided into two blocks. The East Block contains the Killdeer Badlands and the Wood Mountain Uplands, and the West Block preserves the Frenchman River Valley and the dissected plateaus, coulees and famous 70 Mile Butte. It provides visitors opportunities for camping, hiking, horseback riding, biking and nature viewing in one of the last frontiers of the Canadian west.

The concept of personal choice in relation to health behaviors is an important one. An estimated 90 percent of all illnesses may be preventable if individuals would make sound personal health choice and do not like to see it restricted when it is within the legal and moral boundaries of society. The structure of American society allows us to make almost all our own personal decisions that may concern our health. If we so desire, we can smoke, drink excessively, refuse to wear seat belts, eat whatever foods we want, and live a completely sedentary life style without any exercise. The freedom to make such personal decisions is a fundamental aspect of our society, although the wisdom of these decisions can be questioned. Personal choices relative to health often cause a difficulty. As one example, a teenager may know the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is the socially accepted thing to do.
