Parks Canada and Rouge National Urban Park is losing its dedicated CEO with the retirement of Alan Latourelle, and great friend of the Rouge.
Daniel Watson is taking on the job of CEO, PARKS CANADA AGENCY, and we look forward to working with him as we move ROUGE NATIONAL URBAN PARK to its more complete configuration.
Good luck in your retirement after 32 years of distinguished service and commitment, Alan, and thanks for being a great friend of Rouge Park.
