St. Lawrence Parks Commission

The St. Lawrence Parks Commission (French: Commission des parcs du Saint-Laurent) is a Crown agency of the Government of Ontario that manages parks and heritage sites along the shoreline of the St. Lawrence River in southeastern Ontario. It functions similarly to the Niagara Parks Commission's role in overseeing attractions and conservation on the Ontario side of the Niagara River.
