There needs to be a standard policy regarding hammocks in national and provincial parks. It's ridiculous. Parks Canada is a founding partner of LNT. Hennessy Hammocks are a corporate sponsor of LNT. And yet on the Parks Canada site, there’s no mention of hammocks, it’s all about tents.

Time and time again, we are come face to face with total ignorance by Park officials. Yesterday I called Georgian Bay Islands National Park and was told I would be "removed from the Park" for using a Hennessy hammock instead of a tent.
Tents are not LNT, hammocks are. Time for Parks Canada to walk the talk?
