The largest remaining stand of old growth red pine anywhere in the world at Wolf Lake needs to be protected. This 1,600-hectare old growth forest in Greater Sudbury is the only remaining example of what the initial forest ecosystem must have been before logging and mining changed the face of Sudbury and nearby areas. Recreationally, it is a canoeing destination and ecologically, it is a huge sink for storing carbon and mitigating climate change. Culturally, it is part of the traditional lands of Wahnapitae First Nation.
