Water Conversations with the Alberta Government
The Government of Alberta is holding several “Water Conversations” over the next month. There will be one held in the Beaver River watershed at Willow Prairie Hall (La Corey, north of Bonnyville) on Feb. 28 at 5:30 pm. The purpose of the sessions is to gather input on various water-related issues of interest to Albertans in order to guide policy development; more information can be found in the attached poster. We would strongly encourage our members to attend this important meeting and let the Government of Alberta know how important Muriel Lake’s water issues are to the public.
