Crown Lands

Crown Lands refer to properties and resources owned by the government (the Crown) on behalf of the public. These lands can include forests, parks, and other natural areas. Governments manage Crown Lands to conserve natural resources, support public uses like recreation and industry, and generate revenue through leases and resource extraction. The specific rights and responsibilities related to Crown Lands vary by jurisdiction, but overall, they are assets held in trust for the benefit of society rather than private ownership.
