Referenced claims
001national-parks-public-landsIndigenous and treaty issues need first-order transition treatment because federal UNDRIP legislation and treaty materials for Alberta point to rights, consultation, Crown obligations, harvesting, cultural places, and affected Indigenous governments beyond ordinary provincial land administration.002national-parks-public-landsThe strongest pro-independence case is conditional: Alberta could use its existing public-land and parks institutions as a transition platform, but only if it negotiates national-park continuity, federal conservation duties, Indigenous/treaty terms, access rules, staffing, assets, and visitor operations before any effective date.003national-parks-public-landsThe strongest anti-independence / pro-federation caution is that without binding transition agreements, disputes over federal park assets, protected status, conservation enforcement, Indigenous/treaty duties, staff, tourism operations, and public access could create avoidable legal and service risk.004national-parks-public-landsThis topic remains high-medium uncertainty: current sources identify today's federal and provincial land institutions, conservation laws, and Indigenous rights/treaty layers, but they do not provide signed independence-transition terms for national parks, Crown land, protected areas, public access, staffing, revenue, enforcement, or asset transfers.
