    It could be Veronica persica.

    I have observed the flower better and I agree with Pinguicola but I raise with dertosensis.

    E-Flora BC lists 2 Butterworts, Pinguicola vulgaris being far more common than P. villosa, especially in the Yoho Park area. As far as I can tell, P. dertosensis is not native in BC.

    It appears to me that the name is Pinguicula vulgaris, not Pinguicola.
