    There's so much I don't understand about groundwater and water table. Our neighbors 60 ft water well went dry this fall. They are less than a quarter mile away from a spring Fed Creek.
    We have an unused water well less than a mile uphill from their dry water well. On a wet year, our well flows out the top of the casing. As dry as it was this year, it only got 3 ft below grade. I've spoken with hydro geologists and they believe this well is getting its water from the same underground river that feed the creek. But how does it skip over our neighbor's well right beside the creek.

          Ah aren't you special.

          We have almost 4% unemployment and yet NDP complain.

          I guess they would like 12% unemployment people leaving shitty roads and closed rural everything and boat
          loads of Gov union workers putting blue pucks in urinals.

                Take a phone book with every page a different color. Now push it together from the ends. Staple some sections together. Gouge out some area and pitch it. Cover it with overburden.
                That's what you can't see.

                  We have DUGOUTS with more water above sloughs nearby...ground water is NOT surface water.

                    No problem finding enough room for a f a g pole, I’m pretty sure the same school can find a Saskatchewan flag pole!

                      And groundwater may not necessarily be an aquifer.

                      I once cored coal from Obed to Bienfait. Recent geology fascinating. And humbling.
