Congrats to @roamtransit on a record-breaking 1️⃣.6️⃣5️⃣ million riders in 2022 🥳 Clearly, more people have realized taking transit is more convenient, affordable, + enjoyable than driving. Thanks to residents + visitors for making Roam such a key part of our sustainable future 🌏

What a great article, I will think of Annie when I go through the gates next. These parks have so many neat stories.

Camping in the backcountry this summer? Don’t forget to carry your permit with you at all times. There’s no wi-fi in the backcountry, so don’t forget to print or download your backcountry camping permit before you head out. More info: ow.ly/nMk550IrIA4

The visitor economy in our national parks are a vital part of the Canadian economic recovery and growth. Thank you to all of the tourism leaders, business owners, and stakeholders in Jasper, Banff, and Lake Louise for taking the time to meet with me. Let's get to work! #cdnpoli

It's official: Town of Banff has changed all signs, making speed limit 30 km/h everywhere (or slower). Much safer for all peds and cyclists. #bike #banff #bikebanff #yycbike #yegbike #canmore

The Rockies are an international symbol of 🇨🇦 tourism. In fact in 2019 #Banff National Park welcomed over 4M visitors. Today, I met with Darren & members from the Banff & Lake Louise Hospitality association on retaining labour, sustainable tourism, and regional specific support.

We are sad to announce Winter Safety Day, planned for Jan 16, has been cancelled. We will be looking at ways to share winter safety information from experts interactively. In the meantime, check the FKC website for winter safety information. kananaskis.org/winter-safety-…

⚠️Drive with caution!❄️ Hwy 1 between Banff and Lake Louise is slick, slidey and congested. Give each other lots of room so you can meet each other on the slopes, not in the ditch. #DriveSafe #slick #ice #winter @global_leslie
