I have been told that you must make reservations a year in advance to camp in Canada parks.

Yes, that is true – all the info is here. The Discovery Pass does not cover guided hikes specifically as these often have an extra charge.

British Columbia, for example, has over 600 Provincial Parks. In other provinces, there is a daily fee much like National Parks (Ontario, Manitoba). These commemorate places and events that have shaped the identity of Canada. The oldest National Park in Canada is Banff in Alberta, founded in 1885. National Parks typically have viewpoints, camping opportunities, hiking trails, lake access, visitor centres and other facilities. In some provinces, entry to Provincial Parks is free (BC, Nova Scotia). To visit most of Canada’s National Parks, Reserves, Marine Conservation Areas and National Historic Sites, there is usually an admission (entry) fee.
