the ministry of natural resources began developing master plans for parks in the 1970s. the plan for sleeping giant provincial park (at that time sibley provincial park) didn’t rely on any public consultation, and was not well received.

as more park plans were rolled out, the mnr engaged in more consultation. responses to plans as well as draft and final plans are included in these records.

park plans include those for:
sleeping giant provincial park (1972)
