Water Experience

I have a practical understanding of water use in the oil and gas industry from a production, injection, and frac’ing perspective. For the last six months I have been following the water crisis is Alberta. I am on the Bow River Basin Council watershed stewardship coordinating committee where I get to hear all of the work happening in Alberta’s watersheds. I am concerned not only about gender inequity with water, from an industrial priority standpoint, but Indigenous inequity, too.
