While many have to pay to access any of the dozens of parks across the country, there is a group that has been granted free admission.

It reminded me of the time a handful of years ago VIA Rail did a promotion for anyone under 18-19. You would received a voucher to travel VIA rail from one side of Canada to the other. I don’t remember the specifics but it was only for the train ride with unlimited stops 2-ways.

You're probably thinking of the Canada 150 Youth Pass.

    That's the one, thanks for finding a link.

    Seems like it was 12-25 years of age and 150$ for a month of unlimited travel. It was a good deal but only available for 1 month, and i was already to old :'(

    Would of been nice to use the pass and only sleep on the train as opposed to finding hotels.
