Mount Leman is located on the border of Alberta and British Columbia. It was named in 1918 after Gérard Leman, a Belgian General who led the defensive forces in the Battle of Liège during World War I. He was captured by German forces and held as a prisoner of war until 1917.{{cite bcgnis|id=12957|title=Mount Leman|access-date=2022-07-04}}{{cite web|last=Baker|first=Chris|title=Brave Little Belgium|url=http://www.firstworldwar.com/features/liege.htm|website=firstworldwar.com|year=2009|access-date=2022-07-04}}{{cite peakfinder|id=769|name=Mount Leman|access-date=2022-07-04}}
