Milk River is a town in the province of Alberta, Canada, located on and named after the Milk River, which flows immediately to its south. It is 70 kilometres (43 mi) south of Lethbridge, and 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) from the Canada-U.S. border. It is primarily a service centre for the many farms and cattle ranches which surround it.
The Milk River area was first settled around the beginning of the 20th century. Milk River was incorporated as a village on 1916 July, and on 1956 March, it was declared a town.
Its motto, “Under Eight Flags”, refers to the area having been under the flags of seven governments and the Hudson’s Bay Company. Including HBC (1818–1869), the eight flags are France (1682–1762), the Spanish Empire (1762–1800), the French Republic (1800–1803), the United States (1803–1818), the British Empire (1869–1945), the Canadian Red Ensign (1945–1965), and the current Canadian Maple Leaf (1965–present).
