How can I find out more about federal laws governing water management and protection?
The full text of these federal laws can be found on the website of Justice Canada. Information is also available on Environment Canada’s website on Water Policy and Legislation at: http://www.ec.gc.ca/water/en/policy/e_policy.htm Another helpful site for researching Canadian laws is offerred by the Canadian Legal Information Institute. The Canadian Water and Wastewater Association also provides summaries of water-related legislation in Canada and the provinces and territories. For a starting point to researching water regulation in the other provinces and territories, see: http://www.ec.gc.ca/water/en/policy/prov/e_prov.
