HCF Accepting Nominations to the 2008
Top Ten Endangered Places List

Submit your nominations to Canada's TOP TEN Endangered Places List by 
*March 21, 2008.*

The Heritage Canada Foundation is accepting nominations to Canada's Top 
Ten Endangered Places List. The list is released annually to bring 
national attention to sites at risk due to neglect, lack of funding, 
inappropriate development and weak legislation. It has become a powerful 
tool in the fight to make landmarks, not landfill.

HCF uses three primary criteria to determine the 10 final sites for
inclusion on the list:

*   Significance of the site
*   Urgency of the threat
*   Community support for its preservation

If you know a site that should be included on our list, tell us about
it today.

Click here for the 2008 Top Ten Endangered Places List Form:

Nominations should be received *by Friday, March 21, 2008*.
The 2008 list will be announced in April.

Feel free to contact us if you're considering a nomination or have any
questions. By email:
heritagecanada@heritagecanada.org
or phone: (613) 237-1066.


Created as the National Trust for Canada in 1973, the Heritage Canada 
Foundation is celebrating 35 years of helping Canadians keep historic 
places alive
