Nations Have to Work Together on Cross-Border Water Issues
- "The Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 [between Canada and the U.S.] made official something that people on both sides of the border had known for generations. That the rivers, the lakes, the streams, the watersheds along our boundary do not belong to one nation or the other, but to both of us, and we are therefore called to be good stewards in the care of these precious resources." - quote from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton; quote appeared in this Environment News Service article.
