Technical Policy Paper

Posted March 26, 2026

From summer through fall 2025, the Province engaged with First Nations, local governments, stakeholders, and the public, to gather additional feedback to inform policy proposals to modernize the Heritage Conservation Act (HCA). 

This Technical Policy Paper outlines how proposed reforms to the Heritage Conservation Act (HCA) have evolved and incorporated feedback since the 2025 Updated Phase 3 Session Primer for Engagement with Local Governments and Stakeholders was released.
