Continental divide needs explaining

Dear Mr. Whitcombe, Your columns are interesting and intelligent, keep it up! Please write about the continental divide, the distance from Prince George and the Fraser River, and the impact of new dams, old dams and possible Site C damming.

Dear Mr. Whitcombe,

Your columns are interesting and intelligent, keep it up!

Please write about the continental divide, the distance from Prince George and the Fraser River, and the impact of new dams, old dams and possible

Site C damming. What planetary force is responsible for this divide and where exactly are the locations of these divides on all our continents.

I am a senior citizen (79) and somehow did not learn in school, or have forgotten, what and why do the planet's rivers turn at a certain point and flow in another direction and what causes it. Has our plant itself turned over and will it happen again?

I look forward to your written response to these questions and your easy to understand answers in the P.G. Citizen.

Yours Truly,

Marilyn Hall

Prince George
