| Content En | OTTAWA, CANADA – October 27, 2023 – A recent update to Canada's national cadastral map has revealed a surprising oversight: hundreds of previously uncharted parcels of land, totaling over 10,000 square kilometers, have been mistakenly classified as national parks. The error, attributed to a software glitch, has caused confusion among land owners and environmental groups. The government is scrambling to rectify the situation, issuing clarification statements and working to resolve potential legal challenges. Wildlife officials, however, are cautiously optimistic, with some suggesting the accidental parks could become valuable conservation areas. The incident has raised questions about the accuracy and reliability of digital cadastral mapping. |
