Irrigation on Prairies Dates Back to 70 Years of Growth
The article traces irrigation in southern Alberta from John Glen’s 70 year old diversion on Pish Creek near Calgary to large projects. It details early small schemes, 1901 St Mary river works, later Lethbridge Strathmore Brooks Vauxhall projects, WWI pauses, and drought driven expansion. By 1930 over 508000 acres were served. Under federal provincial programs more storage dams, canals and three major expansions, including St Mary dam, Canada Land and Irrigation Project, and Red Deer River diversion, aim to irrigate up to one million acres in the dry prairie basin.
