I do agree that part of Jasper's charm is that it's less developed. However, it does make sense that if you use the services of a private company, you'll have to pay for it, just like you would for any restaurant in Jasper. I do imagine though that part of the admission from the Walkway will go towards the National Park, as the point is that Parks Canada is looking to increase their revenue through private partnerships
Also, everyone can still enjoy and view our Canadian wilderness free of charge (not counting the parks admission)
