I have talked to many people who say and read many websites that claim Stanley Park is the largest urban park in North America. This is false, and I will prove it.<\/p>\n
Below is a list of urban parks in North America larger than 1000 acres (the size of Stanley Park) that others have sent to me.<\/p>\n
As you can see, not only is Stanley Park not the largest park in North America, it isn’t even the largest urban park in Canada. In fact, it isn’t even the largest urban park in western Canada.<\/p>\n
BCers can, however, rest assured knowing that Stanley Park may be the largest urban park in British Columbia.<\/p>\n
Amazing how people love to spread falsehoods without verifying their accuracy.<\/p>\n
