So we\u2019re interested in the way in which we changed the landscape of the prairies  And then the third theme is to do with sustainable development of natural resources.  And a primary Canadian example is the oil sands, looking at reclamation, remediation, and risk assessment issues.  <\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nWith $30 million dollars in funding, Dr. Wheater expects to make a major splash to improve Canada\u2019s water future.\n<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nThanks today to <b>Syncrude Canada Ltd.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFOR INNOVATION ANTHOLOGY<br \/>\nI\u2019M CHERYL CROUCHER <\/b>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syncrude.com\">Syncrude<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/SyncrudeLogo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02011-04-12<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Among the 19 scientific superstars who\u2019ve been recruited to Canada as part of the Canada Excellence Research Chairs program is <b>Dr. Howard Wheater.<\/b><br \/>\nDr. Wheater has moved from Imperial College in the United Kingdom to the University of Saskatchewan.
