Book excerpt: This use is characterized by the fact that the extracted water is used entirely for human consumption, and often exported beyond the limits of the region where the extraction took place. [...] FEDERAL GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES Federal involvement in the management of freshwater resources has taken the form of a number of initiatives, including collaboration in work done by various Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) groups on water quality and conservation. [...] At that time, the federal government established two goals in this regard: • to protect and enhance the quality of Canada's water resources; and • to promote the wise and efficient management and use of water. [...] The Valley runs parallel to the Bay of Fundy, between the North Mountain and the South Mountain. [...] The characteristics of the groundwater resources in these aquifers are in the process of being defined.
Download or read book Eau Canada written by Karen Bakker and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the sustainability of our natural resources is increasingly questioned, Canadians remain stubbornly convinced of the unassailability of our water. Mounting evidence suggests, however, that Canadian water is under threat. Eau Canada assembles the country's top water experts to discuss our most pressing water issues. Perspectives from a broad range of thinkers � geographers, environmental lawyers, former government officials, aquatic and political scientists, and economists � reflect the diversity of concerns in water management. Arguing that weak governance is at the heart of Canada's water problems, this timely book identifies our key failings, explores debates over jurisdiction, transboundary waters, exports, and privatization, and maps out solutions for protecting our most important resource.
