Crossing over to Wild Rose Alberta

were to the neighboring province of Alberta. He said, “Only about an hour’s drive away.” With that reply, the insatiable tourist in me emerged once again, so we planned to visit Alberta’s nearby cities, just to have a look at what tourist attractions they offer.

It is home to six UNESCO World Heritage Sites: The Canadian Rockies, which is a mountain range that spans BC and Alberta; Dinosaur Provincial Park, which has fossils of about 35 species of dinosaurs dating back to around 75 million years; and, Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, which shows layers of American Bison bones, representing around 6000 years of their existence in the area.

There are also the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, which is exceptionally rich in plant and mammal species; Wood Buffalo National Park, which is the largest national park in the country at 44,741 square kilometers; and Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park, which has a diverse natural landscape and, contrary to its name, writing or leaving marks on the stone walls is considered vandalism and is illegal, therefore, punishable by law.

Beaverlodge is a small town right after the border between BC and Alberta. People who drive through the main highway always make a stopover in this town because, right at its center, there is a giant statue of a beaver. Of course, we were no exception. As to the statue’s historical or cultural significance, nobody could tell us. All we know is that it makes a very good backdrop for photo ops.

'Handwashing' and avoidanceTHE response of Secretary Maria Antonia Yulo-Loyzaga of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) when asked during a budget hearing about the issuance of an environmental compliance certificate (ECC) to the reclamation projects in Manila Bay is quite disturbing.
