Suite aux élections du 14 avril 2003, la responsabilité de la faune et des parcs a été confiée au Ministère, devenu le ministère des Ressources naturelles, de la Faune et des Parcs. Le 18 février 2005, suite à un remaniement ministériel, la responsabilité des parcs ne relève plus du MRNFP, de sorte que celui-ci devient le ministère des Ressources naturelles et de la Faune. Le Ministère est responsable de la gestion du territoire québécois et des ressources naturelles. Sa mission consiste à favoriser la mise en valeur, la conservation et la connaissance des ressources naturelles et du territoire, dans une perspective de développement durable et de gestion intégrée, au bénéfice des citoyens. 1, record 5, French, - minist%C3%A8re%20des%20Ressources%20naturelles%20et%20de%20la%20Faune
