How does the Living Water Smart plan compare to what other jurisdictions across Canada and around the world are doing?
British Columbia has many leading water programs in place, including our dam safety program, water use planning, the innovative research of academic institutions on oceans and coastal ecosystems, and strong water export and drinking water protection legislation. Living Water Smart builds on these successes and continues to move us towards outstanding water stewardship. We have learned from other jurisdictions (such as Alberta, Ontario, England, Australia and New Zealand) and adapted our plan to address B.C.’s current and emerging water challenges.
