Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park is the world's first peace park. Waterton-Glacier and the Flathead River Valley is one of the most wild, biologically-rich places in the world. The river originates in British Columbia, Canada, and flows south into Montana where it forms the western boundary of Glacier National Park. However, a Canadian proposal to build a massive coal strip-mine will literally push a mountain into the Flathead River just miles upstream from Glacier's boundary. Contaminated waste from the proposed mine would flow into the Flathead River ruining water quality--industrializing one of the wildest landscapes in North America, and threatening the fish and wildlife of Glacier National Park.

Send your comments today to Canada's Minister of the Environment, British Columbia's Premier, and the U.S. Secretary of the Interior. (Your comments will be delivered in person to the United Nations World Heritage Committee at their upcoming meeting in Spain.) Let them know that mining in the Flathead River Valley is not appropriate and that this area should be protected as one of the last remaining pristine landscapes in North America.
