- Adventure Tourism Strategy Development: The Wilderness Tourism Association joined sixteen other Adventure Tourism organizations to develop the Adventure Tourism Strategy. This is a strategic plan developed to guide discussion with the province on needed changes in government policy and administration of natural resource management and land tenure in the province.
- Salmon Farming: The WTA developed principles for government to consider in managing open net Salmon farming.
- National Energy Board Submissions on Pipelines: The WTA has been opposed both the Enbridge and Trans Mountain pipeline projects and made submissions to both processes. The underlaying reasons for the objection (environmental impacts) were identical for both however they differed in terms of land based impacts. The WTA opposed the Enbridge project due to it potential terrestrial and marine environmental impacts. The board felt that the risk connected to this proposal were too high. The WTA conditionally opposed the Trans Mountain Pipeline because of its potential marine impacts.
