I'm wondering if this will make any difference. There's talk that over time there's been a channel deepened in the St. Clair River, which is an international river, which may or may not have helped to significantly lower the water level in Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, and Georgian Bay. Would this amendment stop something like that or make it more prevalent? It seems to have happened on the American side of the St. Clair River. It's probably to make sure lakers travelling up the lake can get through, but it seems to have happened without anyone knowing. Would this stop something like that? If you dig out a channel, it lets more water run through, so it is moving water.
