Description:For more than a century the foothills and Front Range mountains of western Alberta have been recognized as vital to the future water supply for Canada’s prairies. Virtually all the water that sustains communities, ecosystems and the economy of prairie Canada comes from this narrow strip of land along the Continental Divide. For all its importance, however, water management decisions have ignored the land’s health and focused almost exclusively on building dams.
