Consultations & Letters

The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC (ORCBC) plays an active role in advocating for the outdoor recreation community by participating in consultations, submitting letters, and providing feedback on key policy and planning initiatives. These efforts aim to advance sustainable recreation, protect natural spaces, and represent the diverse voices of recreation users across BC.

On this page, you will find recent submissions, consultation opportunities, and key correspondence on pressing issues. By sharing this information, we hope to empower individuals and organizations to engage in meaningful advocacy and contribute to the ongoing dialogue shaping outdoor recreation in BC.

Whether you're part of a recreation group, an individual outdoor enthusiast, or a partner organization, we encourage you to stay informed and take action to support BC’s vibrant outdoor recreation community.

Consultations

This page provides an overview of some of the major consultation opportunities that are relevant for the public outdoor recreation community. If we have missed listing any significant engagement opportunities, please notify us.

While ORCBC will provide input into a number of consultations each year, we encourage individuals and groups from the outdoor recreation community to get informed about the issues and speak up to provide insights and advance the interests of this diverse and important community.

To see a list of other consultation opportunities, you can visit EngageBC, the Province’s Angling, Hunting and Trapping Engagement page and BC Parks’ Management Planning page. As an exclusive service to our member organizations, we provide them with email notifications of commercial tourism tenure applications. You can also do your own search of current applications by visiting Front Counter BC.
