Interesting point - the drainage basin for Calling looks like it's not very big and contains very little agriculture. There is also a reasonably large wetland (muskeg) to the North. So you are right, there are no real obvious or immediate agricultural influences for that lake in particular.

The drainage basin, and Calling Lake, are also a part of the larger Athabasca River Watershed and there are many known lakes with obvious culprits and contributors to unnatural ( and natural) nutrient loading.

Not sure what to make of Calling. Would be real curious to know.
