Since there is no land area of Canada that is belowsea level,[1] 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 ofLake Athabasca, which straddles Alberta and Saskatchewan, is Saskatchewan's lowest dry point (213 m (699 ft)above sea level). TheSlave River (which drains Lake Athabasca) flows from northeastern Alberta into theNorthwest Territories and is Alberta's lowest point at the N.W.T. border (152 m (499 ft) above sea level). However, the False Creek Tunnel, part of theCanada Line rail-based transit system inVancouver, at 29 m (95 ft) below sea level, is the lowest publicly accessible point in Canada.[14] Parts ofRichmond, British Columbia are below sea-level, though behind dikes.[citation needed]
