As First Nation and Treaty Nations Alberta, our communities must begin to protect our water resources and its ecosystems from the government and oil and gas sector because they do not know better and do not understand what it means when resources become dry. Many of the proposed programs used to tame resource extraction and clean-up require water, our primary resource in Treaty Six, and we have to bring more voices and points of view to argue what the government is doing wrong. Basic questions include, most of the the resources in the south are dry and rely on northern resources to run projects at the same time, Alberta has a water permit system in place with many of the southern communities in the event water needs management access: who gets water and how much? This process affects business and population in big cities such as Calgary, Lethbridge, or Red Deer. When the provinces propose an emission hub at Cold Lake, another water resource we have to ask ourselves now really, that is not innovation that is dirty politics because it hasn't first fixed the water problem and has just moved a program to another treaty area to pollute the environments while excluding the original and first peoples in defining these issues of land/resource theft. Our First Nations have to do a better job in providing the rationale for these forms of circumstances where we have a desperate and sneaky conservative government to prevent long-term damage such as damaging water resources, supplies and ecosystems. Our job is to protect and not accommodate a system that isn't doing its job in southern Alberta. Emission Hubs have to be criticized based on what the current environment and resource issues are, including the shortage of water. It's alarming because our future generation will have limited access to water in the prairies. Look at the Prince George River Basin as an example of a river system with no water?

With many reforms and growing funding, water management in Kazakhstan remains archaic and extremely flawed. The existing sectoral-administrative-territorial management hinders water conservation and is unable to preserve water ecosystems - the basis of economic development, human health and life itself. A key solution for responding to the growing challenges of interconnected global water, climate, economic and other crises is the transition to water basin management - the transformation of conventional governance and integration of socio-economic systems into natural processes, based on integral, indivisible water basin ecosystems with the leading role of people as shareholders - owners, guardians and heirs of their land https://lnkd.in/gPzptGdh
