KAMLOOPS — Thompson Rivers University unveiled its new Tier Two Canada Research Chair.

Dr. Courtney Mason was selected by his peers to the designation, and his appointment means the university will receive 100-thousand dollars in research grants annually for the next five years.

Mason says his research focuses on impacts of the displacement of parks and protected areas – but doesn’t stop there.
