Thank you for the question. I will try to answer it.
I think the NAFTA statement issued by the three countries makes it very clear that water in its natural state is not a good or a commodity and therefore is not subject to any trade agreement. It is in fact a resource.
The whole approach we've taken in amending the International Boundary Waters Treaty Act, which implements the boundary waters treaty between Canada and the United States, is to look at and deal with water as a natural resource, to protect it in its basin and to prohibit removals out of the water basin. It's an environmental measure of general application and is consistent with our international trade obligations.
So I just want to emphasize that this is the approach we've taken to deal with water—as a natural resource, in its basin.
