Likely similar to what you'd find here. think of the upper Athabasca and N. Sask Systems. Not the most productive, but still a regular selection of mayflies, caddises, stoneflies, and midges. Also, you'd probably get a lot of blackflies and mosquitoes larvae in and slower backwater eddies. Adults of those too of course.
Terrestrials would also do quite well I suppose.
