First Oil Well In Western Canada

The First Oil Well in Western Canada, also known as Lineham Discovery Well No. 1, is a defunct oil well and national historic site of Canada, which commemorates the September 21, 1902 oil strike in what is now Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta. The well, originally drilled in 1902, was the first

productive oil well in the western Canadian provinces.
