About the Whitecourt–Westlock area
The area
This page covers Statistics Canada's census division No. 13, a band of north-central Alberta from Whitecourt east to Athabasca and Boyle, north and northwest of Edmonton. It covers about 24,300 km² of land and had about 68,100 people in 2021. It holds six rural municipalities: Lac Ste. Anne County (about 10,800 in 2021), Westlock County (7,200), Athabasca County (7,000), Barrhead County (5,900), Woodlands County (4,600) and Thorhild County (3,000). The largest towns are Whitecourt (about 9,900), Westlock (4,900), Barrhead (4,300) and Athabasca (2,800), with Mayerthorpe, Onoway and Boyle smaller. Around Lac Ste. Anne and other lakes are many summer villages, such as Alberta Beach and Sunset Point.
History
The Woodland Cree called the Whitecourt valley Sagitawah, "the place where the rivers meet". Fort Assiniboine was a Hudson's Bay Company transport and supply point from 1823 to 1877, and in 1897-98 Klondike gold seekers passed through on a trail north from there. After Treaty 8 was signed at Grouard in 1899, homesteaders arrived; Whitecourt got its name with a post office in 1910. Lac Ste. Anne hosts one of Canada's best-known Catholic pilgrimages, a place of spiritual importance for Indigenous peoples.
Services and access
Whitecourt, Mayerthorpe and Barrhead each have a healthcare centre with an emergency room. Whitecourt is about 170 km northwest of Edmonton on Highway 43, roughly two hours from Edmonton International Airport, which has the nearest scheduled flights; Woodlands County runs a local airport at Whitecourt with a 5,797-foot paved runway. Forestry and oil and gas carry the western end: Millar Western, Canfor and Alberta Newsprint are the big forestry companies around Whitecourt. Agriculture remains the base in Lac Ste. Anne County.
Land and climate
Whitecourt sits where the Athabasca and McLeod rivers, the Sakwatemau (Eagle) River and Beaver Creek meet, at the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountain foothills. Woodlands County alone covers about 7,600 km², with farmland, the hamlets of Blue Ridge, Fort Assiniboine, Goose Lake and Anselmo, Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park and Hard Luck Canyon. Woodlands County removes beaver dams on request to protect fields and woodlots from flooding.
Before you buy
Each county has its own land use bylaw and issues development permits for rural land. Building, electrical, gas, plumbing and septic permits come under Alberta's Safety Codes Act, and who issues them varies. Lac Ste. Anne County is accredited to issue most of them itself. Woodlands County is not: owners there apply to a provincially authorized agency, but only after the county approves the development permit. The Alberta Safety Codes Authority oversees permits in Woodlands County.
