Lowest points

Since there is no land area of Canada that is below sea level, the lowest elevation of Canada is at any point along its maritime coast, and all provinces and territories except Alberta and Saskatchewan have a maritime coast. The shore of Lake Athabasca, which straddles Alberta and Saskatchewan, is Saskatchewan's lowest dry point ( above sea level). The Slave River (which drains Lake Athabasca) flows from northeastern Alberta into the Northwest Territories and is Alberta's lowest point at the N.W.T. border ( above sea level). However, the False Creek Tunnel, part of the Canada Line rail-based transit system in Vancouver, at below sea level, is the lowest publicly accessible point in Canada.
