The Alberta-British Columbia border was established through a combination of historical treaties and negotiations. Initially, the border was defined by the 1871 British Columbia Terms of Union, which stipulated that the province would join Canada with specific boundaries. The border was further refined by the 1906 decision of the British Columbia-Alberta Boundary Commission, which established the current boundary largely along the 120th meridian west. This line was chosen for its geographical clarity and practicality, reflecting the region's topography.
