Yes....I've passed through that area. Cardston, Alberta, (on the prairies just NE of Glacier/ Waterton NP) has that distinct 'Mormon Temple' found in any large Mormon town...and I seem to recall hearing that it was settled in the 1880's by immigrants from Utah who arrived in 'The LAST great migration in North America to travel by covered wagon'. The nearby tiny town of Mountain View also has a large LDS church/ school, etc.

I was pretty surprised by all this....but it makes sense, I guess.
