Why this is the answer
From the official Discover Canada study guide — 1.4.6 Protecting and Enjoying Our Heritage and Environment:
Every citizen has a part to play in looking after Canada. One part is the environment: avoiding waste and avoiding pollution in daily life. The other part is heritage. Canada's heritage is natural, cultural and architectural — the landscapes, the traditions and the buildings. All of it is there to be enjoyed now and kept safe for the generations who come after. The rule is short and simple: enjoy it, protect it, and pass it on.
