Fruit trees attract bears into our neighbourhoods which puts people and wildlife at risk.

Bears accessing fruit trees is the one of the main causes of bears needing to be relocated or killed in the Bow Valley.

We are making Canmore safer for people and wildlife by reducing financial barriers to remove fruit trees. Apply now to receive cash back for 100% of the cost of removal up to $500/property. New this year! Condos or commercial properties with five or more trees for removal may be eligible for additional support (up to $1000/property) for 2024 only.
