Water in our lake comes from several tributaries including the South Heart River, the East and West Prairie Rivers, the Driftpile River, and the Swan River. The Lesser Slave River is the only outlet of Lesser Slave Lake and it flows from the Town of Slave Lake to the Athabasca River about 75km East of Slave Lake.

  • Lesser Slave Lake Health Advisory Council
    Building a better health system with the voice of our community Where we are The Lesser Slave Lake Health Advisory Council serves High Prairie, Lesser Slave Lake and Wabasca and a number of rural and remote communities including Faust, Grouard, Joussard, Kinuso, Red Earth Creek, Peerless Lake and Trout Lake. Our geographic area covers a range of landscapes, industries, and demographics, as well as long-established communities. (see map page 2). Accomplishments • Supported the need for the new High Prairie Health Complex, bringing services closer to where people live. • Recommended the need for an EMS ambulance garage in Wabasca. • Advocated for increased transportation options for those in rural areas and worked with AHS leadership to bring forward these concerns (ongoing). • Partnered with AHS to host a Community Conversation in High Prairie. Stakeholders engaged in discussion about health care successes, challenges and opportunities for future partnerships. Our role and objectives Everything we do is about improving the health and wellness of Albertans, no matter what part of the province they live in. We: • Are a group of volunteers focused on listening to your thoughts and ideas on health services to help AHS enhance care locally and province wide. • Develop partnerships between the province’s diverse communities and AHS. • Provide feedback about what is working well within the health care system and suggest areas for improvement. • Promote opportunities for members of our local communities to get engaged. Join us - your voice matters There are a number of opportunities to participate, visit ahs.ca and search Health Advisory Councils for more info: • Attend an upcoming council meeting to hear feedback, offer comments, and ask questions.

  • Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997
    1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997 Prepared by: Brian Lucko and Glenn Todd October, 1997 Northwest Boreal Region Alberta Conservation Association 1 1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Abstract In the spring of 1997, the Alberta Conservation Association conducted a study to confirm the presence of spawning walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) in six tributaries and at four shoreline areas within Lesser Slave Lake in northern Alberta. The six tributaries were the Swan River, Driftpile River, Marten River, Assineau River, Strawberry Creek and Mission Creek. The four shoreline areas include Joussard townsite, Giroux Bay (Faust townsite), Spruce Point Park, and mouth of the Driftpile River. Walleye were captured by electrofishing (primary method) and in some instances, gill netting. When spawning walleye were located, the site was revisited and kick sampling conducted to collect walleye eggs. Thirty kick sampling sites were established during this survey. Electrofishing produced 138 spawning walleye in the lower section of Strawberry Creek. The Driftpile River and Assineau River produced 7 walleye and 1 walleye respectively. No walleye were found in the Swan River and Marten River. A genetic test indicated that walleye eggs were found in Strawberry Creek and at 3 shoreline sites within Lesser Slave Lake: 1) Joussard, 2) Giroux (Faust) Bay, and 3) Spruce Point Park.
