Abstract
This paper summarises the continental (Laurentide) glacial history of the northern Interior Plains of Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba) using magnetostratigraphy, tephrochronology, and paleosol data collected at type sections. The use of borecores for retrieval of oriented till samples for paleomagnetic analysis, is discussed.
