520 |a"The objective of this publication is to focus on what Canadians are doing to their land resource. It examines several of our activities which produce pressures on the land, contributing to land degradation, or reducing the utility of the land. Previous publications of the Lands Directorate have examined how the land resource of the nation is allocated, and whether its use suits the inherent capability of that resource. Other works have focused on the means of allocation of the resource and on control measures such as planning or zoning which ensure that the land is in socially productive uses. This work constitutes one of the first ventures into the next phase of the analysis of land use in Canada — the analysis of how people use the land once its use has been allocated, and what the results of their management practices mean for the resource as a whole. As a first step, it identifies several of the more visible pressures which are brought on the land resource and examines how important these are in terms of the maintenance of the capability of the resource base itself"--Preface.
