Selling of Canadian water rights to American or other countries is counterproductive for the Canadian economy and a hardship for Indigenous peoples who have limited access to clean water. Indigenous people are stewards of their own lands and all rivers and lakes that pass through their territory. They must be involved in selling any resource. Secondly wells were noted to be bought by Nestle/Triton. These are community wells and no one has the right to sell them. Ontario is at present in a low water situation as advised by Conservation authorities. It makes no sense, economically, ecologically, ethically to sell a precious Canadian resource to any other country. Water is essential for life and health ,once gone it cannot be replaced.
