ya, they experimented a lot in the national parks with some very strange and exotic species of fish. I think they need to put some grass carp in Muir. that place is over growing with weeds.
Here is what i found on the 'net and it lists everything. Everyone can read it and see what was i troduced and what is native.

I'm pretty aware of what native means xtreme...your original comment was out to lunch. See the list of non-native fish posted above.
Fish like walleye and pike and cutthroat are most definitely native to Alberta. Even your link says that. There are definitely way more native than non-native game fish in Alberta.
