In the thousands of pages of negotiations that would surely result if Alberta were to secede from Canada, at least one chapter would likely be dedicated to the Town of Banff. This tourist mecca is already a jurisdictional anomaly: situated on federal parkland that the town has leased for $550,000 a year since it incorporated in 1990. Residents own their homes but not their land; that's also leased from Ottawa. The province operates the local hospital and schools, but the federal government has veto power over most bylaw changes. In short, governance is complicated. And with Oct. 19 approaching — when Alberta will vote on, among other questions, whether to hold a referendum on separating from Canada — many of those who live in this mountain resort town are worried about the future. The Town of Jasper, roughly 300 kilometres northwest of Banff, faces similar issues, given it's also based in a federal park in Alberta. But it's the questions raised particularly in Banff, which has almost twice the population of Jasper, that indicate the scale of the seismic shift should a province secede.

Originally from Canada, her research focuses on understanding and predicting how coastlines change, from individual storms through to long-term coastal evolution. She works across shoreline monitoring, coastal erosion and recovery, remote sensing, and the development of next-generation coastal prediction models that combine physical understanding with data-driven and machine learning approaches. Kristen is a member of the leadership team of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Our Future Oceans, where she contributes to interdisciplinary research supporting the resilience of coastal and marine environments. Her work is driven by a belief that better coastal futures depend on bringing together diverse knowledge, observations, and technologies to improve our understanding of dynamic coastal systems.
