WINNIPEG — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau repeated promises Tuesday to update legislation that governs water use while formally announcing the Canada Water Agency is to be headquartered in Manitoba's capital city.
"Updating this act is about ensuring that we have the tools to work with provinces and territories on protecting and restoring shared waters."The current act provides a framework for co-operation with the provinces and territories concerning the conservation, development and use of Canada's water resources.
