Provincial and territorial heritage information
In Canada, heritage designations can be recognized by various authorities, including federal, provincial, and territorial jurisdictions. Parks Canada is responsible for federal heritage designations which can be found in the Directory of Federal Heritage Designations.
Provincial and territorial heritage designations fall under the authority of their respective jurisdictions. These are the provincial and territorial heritage contact information and registers or programs across Canada.
