We recognize that the provinces and territories have an important regulatory role to play with drinking water, with source water and with non-source water protection. We'll continue to respect those rules and responsibilities.
Our job is to work with provinces and territories, stakeholders, partners and indigenous communities around the freshwater action plan. We've identified eight transboundary watersheds across the country that require collaboration and co-ordination. We have $650 million of funding to help coordinate action in those areas, including around the Great Lakes, St. Lawrence, the Wolatoq/St. John River in New Brunswick, Lake Winnipeg basin, the Fraser and the Mackenzie.
We will continue to collaborate with the provinces on identifying priorities and putting in place measures to help with non-point source protection and improving water quality in those areas.
