Check out this decent article about the recent geological survey of Canada-- finding that there are great geothermal resources in Northern Alberta. The article does mention the risks around water usage, but these risks are no where near as bad as coal. One last thing: no mention of who lives up in Northern Alberta, and therefore, whose decision it would be to move ahead with geothermal.

Diversifying our energy economy will provide tens of thousands of new clean and green jobs for Albertans, and has the opportunity to create just solutions to our province’s contribution to the climate crisis. The government of Alberta, however, continues to drag its heels on introducing real policies, strategies or legislation that would set Alberta on a proactive course of strengthening the province’s position with one of the fastest growing sectors in the world.
More than 200,000 green jobs could easily be created in Alberta if the government made renewable energy a priority.
