[edit] National Parks and Ecological Reserves of Québec

The national parks of Québec are managed by the Société des établissements de plein air du Québec, also known as Sépaq. The ecological reserves[1] and biodiversity reserves are managed by the Ministère du Développement durable, de l’Environnement et des Parcs (Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment and Parks) of Québec. The Ministry also plan to create one new type of protected area, the Aquatical Reserves. [2].
