It has a global rank of G4, meaning apparently secure. It also has many local ranks in Canada and the US. Including, S4 in Quebec, meaning, again, apparently secure. A S3 rank in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, meaning it is vulnerable. A S1 rank is found in Alaska and Manitoba, meaning critically imperiled.
