The Heritage Canada Foundation is accepting nominations to Canada’s Top Ten Endangered Places List. The list is released annually to bring national attention to sites at risk due to neglect, lack of funding, inappropriate development and weak legislation. It has become a powerful tool in the fight to make landmarks, not landfill.
HCF uses three primary criteria to determine the 10 final sites for inclusion on the list:
Significance of the site
Urgency of the threat
Community support for its preservation
If you know a site that should be included on our list, tell us about it today.
Nominations should be received by Friday, March 21, 2008. The 2008 list will be announced in April.
Feel free to contact us if you’re considering a nomination or have any questions.
By email: heritagecanada@heritagecanada.org or phone: (613) 237-1066.
Created as the National Trust for Canada in 1973, the Heritage Canada Foundation is celebrating 35 years of helping Canadians keep historic places alive
