Not necessarily. He's just one, single person. Even the "Washington Redskins" debate has plenty of representative from both the side that isn't offended in the least and the side that wants the name changed. Pretty tough to label a person getting paid good money to be in a big Hollywood production as unbias representative of Canadians as a whole.
I'm pretty sure Parks Canada can approve or deny any film they want, and just because it meets Tom Jackson's standards, doesn't mean it meets those set out by Parks Canada.
