Alberta Ecotrust created the Watershed Protectors Program in partnership with Petro-Canada to improve long-term watershed protection in Alberta.  The program provides assistance to local volunteer watershed stewards to work more effectively and collaboratively in their conservation and protection roles.  Suncor Energy Inc.  is proud to continue involvement in this important partnership. RBC Foundation through the RBC Blue Water Project is also a contributor to this Program in 2011. Using a team-based approach, this program helps Watershed Stewardship Groups to build capacity by equipping them with knowledge, tools and networking capability.
